Lately, most of the books I've read have been a 3 stars only. Could be just me. My favorite part of a romance book is basically the pieces coming together and the pieces coming undone. I like to see how they react when things don't work out. The heartache is sad to read but it's actually one of the great parts. It's right before they realize they're meant to be and fight for each other. I felt some of that WOW heartache but (it could just be me), it wasn't WOW or anything major major. The fallouts are the best part and I didn't felt all that from this book. I did get the whole feeling thing. It was good. This is only the third lesbian romance story I've read. This one is definitely at the top, better than the other two for sure. Besides that, everything was on point. I just felt like something really mindblowing and major was missing. It could've been just me and my crazy self. It was a great read and It only took me 5 hours to read. Worth it. Loved the ending. It was sweet. Btw, I wish we got to see how Delta and Jordan got along later on, a year later. I could see myself recommending this book. It wasn't a bad book. Once again, it was good. I felt like it was missing something.

I did enjoy this but the love story developed quite fast and it fell a bit flat for me overall, some of the characters weren't fleshed out enough and there were too many unnecessary mentions of weightloss or dieting in my opinion.
