Sweet romance with slow relationship development and character growth over a long period of time- my favorite! Minimal graphic sexual content at end.

I would have really enjoyed this more if it hadn't been so long. I really did like the story, but the ending was not worth over 600 pages. I get it was a slow burn, but it was almost TOO slow of a burn for the tiniest bit of seeing them together  we got at the end of the book. The characters were great, but sometimes the main character was a little bit cringe and it bothered me. Overall, it was pretty good. 

would most likely reread, but not definitely ☑️

Me ha encantado, pero hay dos cosas que no me han cuadrado.
La primera es como muchas cosas quedaban en nada, un ejemplo podria ser las inseguridades que tiene Vanessa con su cuerpo, las cuales nunca se solucionan o se hablan seriamente.
La otra cosa creo que recae más en gustos personales, porque a mi de verdad no me gustaba cuando eran muy obvias las intenciones de Aiden pero Vanessa no se daba cuenta, literalmente la habia besado segundos antes y ella seguía creyendo que era solo una amistad, lo cual se me hace muy tonta porque no es la primera vez que la autora lo hace y al final cansa.

Re-read 2013- 3.0



Go Aiden give us nothing.
