4.5

This book was beautifully written, with tender moments and dynamic characters. I adore Jacob! I really appreciate the author’s efforts to write contemporary romances that aren’t tragic but still have emotional components and some trauma/personal growth required of the characters. Bri really bothered me though in the second half of the book because she was hyper fixating on one assumption she made and she disregarded everything else in front of her face. It made it harder to feel like she was still speaking Jacob’s language like she had earlier in the story. Overall, I loved this book, though parts of it ripped my heart out and I couldn’t get to the happy ending fast enough to recover emotionally.

4.0

This was amazing. Loved the mentions of Alexis & Daniel, the representation of kidney disease, anxiety, and trauma. The sexual tension and creative plot made this an exceptional romance. The themes of family, mental health, and medical settings were some of my favorite. Every character but especially Briana and Jacob were so real, felt like I was in this book, living this book while reading it. The reason I'm giving 4 stars and not 5, is because of the extremely frustrating miscommunication trope. I do think that Jimenez did it well in this book and I think you're supposed to be frustrated, but still doesn't mean I like the trope. Also I did not love one aspect of the ending. But won't mention it for spoiler purposes.

I gotta say I loved Just for the Summer a lot more than this one. This one didn't keep my interest as much and I did get annoyed about the non communication issue! I liked it enough to give it a decent rating but I just wished they spoke about their feelings sooner and didn't assume the things they did. Aside from that, it's a good story! I do recommend checking for trigger warnings.
