Not life changing, but a cute read! I did read all in one sitting, and the switch in perspectives was well done. The forced proximity/enemies to lovers tropes are acknowledged but I appreciate that this book didn’t try to be life changing, it just was a good, not super intense read with a little bit of emotion. Macy’s quote about forgiveness is something that I needed to read when I read it.

This was my least favorite Tarah book but I would still die for Deacon and LaRynn. I’m always a sucker for a childhood friends/highschool sweethearts/second chance romance and this one was so funny while also not losing that angst that comes with first heartbreak. LaRynn is one of the most relatable heroines I’ve come across, and while the story wasn’t as captivating to me personally as FF and Rootbound, I felt so connected to the characters, and their flaws had me rooting for them even more??? Also this book gave me my first “my wife” moment and I swear it changed me on a molecular level. This woman is magic and I want to know wtf she puts in her books.

Fun premise and audiobook listen - especially loved how the mistrust between both characters was written in an entirely believable way - they have to actively take steps to listen better to one another which I don't often see in romance. I wished it could have been *slightly* spicier a little earlier on, but still really solid!

The book wasn’t bad. It just felt mediocre, the storyline of two people who seem to dislike each other but actually don’t do because all of that just resulted because of a series of miscommunication is so overdone. I mean it still could have been good. But nothing new was done, of course construction is something you don’t usually see. I did not understand one word that was written about construction but it was fine. Meanwhile, the characters seemed kind of flat, I saw the effort of making their life and personalities deep but it just didn’t work for me.

The Co-Op was cute and very fun!

I am always a fan of forced proximity romance, though second chance can be hit or miss for me. I think they balanced each other out pretty well in this case, and while the book didn’t wow me I still had a good time with it.

Read this if you love
🩵 Forced proximity
🩵 Marriage of convenience
🩵 Second chance romance
🩵 Hate to love
🩵 No third act breakup

I think that the book started to fizzle out a little bit toward the end, but the last two chapters were quite lovely. Definitely a lighthearted, low-angst romance. 3.75 stars.

🌟 Be my wife. Stay my wife.

I am weak. This was amazing!!! 

Okay, highlights:
🛠️The epilogue made me teary. I was not ready for all those emotions.
🛠️There was no 3rd act breakup!
🛠️The umbrella ☂️ tattoo scene. If you've read Funny Feelings, you know. If you haven't, you should.
🛠️The smut. I was not ready for the delivery 🚚!! 
🛠️This man was a GONER for her. Aaah we love to see it.

Now onto the only two reasons this isn't a 5 star read:
1. I had whiplash with the second chance romance. The way they got together again felt like it came out of nowhere (for me).
2. Oh, the toothbrush. I'm not even going to explain. 

This was a fantastic read and my knees are now weak. I am very happy. ❤️
