It was a good book, the story had me on my toes at the end, but. It doesn’t feel like an Abby book. I dunno the tone is different, and I felt like it was a lot less tied together like her latest books have been. Kinda disjointed. It also started in one story, and we ended almost completely somewhere else. I still liked the story, but it wasnt what I was expecting based on her other books. And (this is a personal thing I’m sure) I just struggled to connect to this couple, there was a lot going on, and some things went unaddressed, and boundaries were pushed in a way that bothered me.

Perfect. No notes.

This book made me feel every single emotion and I was so immersed in this story. My favorite Abby Jimenez so far. The characters are so lovable. After The Friend Zone, I was really rooting for Sloan to find her happily ever after. As a dog lover, Tucker was such a perfect addition to this story.

POINTS DOCKED OFF FOR THE THIRD ACT BREAKUP!!!! JASON YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID.

Besides that though I love, love, LOVED this novel. The chemistry between Jason and Sloan right off the bat was incredible. They were so damn funny together and when they finally met up I about damn near cried. I did not expect the book to take the very emotional turn it does in the latter half. I did not like Lola throughout the whole novel and then ended up wanting to BURN THE WORLD DOWN FOR HER. She was a product of the situation she was put in and I don't blame her at all for what she did/said. 

Anyways, I'm endlessly glad that my friend bought this for me to read!!!
