Things We Never Got Over is the third book I've read by Lucy Score, and she has not failed me yet! I listened to this audiobook in less than 24 hours. From the very first chapter, I didn't want to put it down. Knox was an amazinggggg male protagonist, and the chapters from his POV were my favorite. I'm always a fan of tattooed men in my books (LOL). The chemistry between him and Naomi was palpable. It also made my heart burst to watch Naomi immediately step in and try to be a mother figure to her niece, working to earn the girl's trust and love even though it was hard at times. The family elements in this book were just so heartwarming and entertaining, and I was sad to see it end. I would 100% recommend Things We Never Got Over, especially the audiobook!

“There’s a difference between taking care of someone because you love them and taking care of someone because you want them to love you,”

This was an amazing read and I loved the character growth. We get to follow along and connect with the FMC as she faces the many problems caused by her sister and saves herself and her niece. The MMC is the perfect example of a strong, supportive partner who feels overwhelmed and scared but eventually recognizes the error of his words and actions. Absolutely loved every second.

There is so much in this book that normally puts me off … but this book was just the right kind of guilty-pleasure, kinda trashy read I needed.

I’m obsessed with Lucian and I won’t rest until I get his story with Sloan, 

This book is honestly so cute, it made me feel so happy. There were ups and downs, and they were typically well written. The only downside was it could be interpreted as insta~love, but it was written in a nice way so I’m happy .
