took a while to get used to the writing style— maybe it’s just because the last book i read had a different style and i don’t read a lot anymore. was cute overall but was not too big of a fan that there was a lot of telling rather than showing.

it felt like a major plot point that kian didn’t like being compared to his dad for reasons unknown to the public so when harper compares them both, he was upset and it added to their dislike for one another in the beginning. would have been nice to see it explained between them later as a part of their developing relationship but instead the reader is just told that kian told harper about it at some point.

I did not expect to like this book as much as I do! Kian and Harper were impossible not to fall in love with.

Upon first glance Harper is the kind of character that I tend to grow tired of fairly quickly - He’s self destructive, a partier, and seems to lack awareness (or care) for how his actions affect those around him. The balance between Kian and Harper in POV really aided in my experience with these characters and it let me warm up to Harper at relatively the same time as Kian and let me tell you - like Kian, once I loved Harper, there was no turning back.

The romance in this was sweet - very hurt/comfort fic if you will, but that was a fantastic thing in my book as a connoisseur of the hurt/comfort tag myself.

I really enjoyed this book and I will definitely be on the lookout for more from this author!

Special thanks to Netgalley and Harper Collins for the arc of this book! I am leaving this review voluntarily!
