Wow wow wow I knew this book was going to be amazing before picking it up but once I started reading I just knew this was the book of the year! This needs to be adapted into a movie immediately. This romance has so much heart. I’m obsessed with Kiki- she is tough but sweet a well balanced fleshed out character who anyone can relate to. And what can I say about Malakai? The man had be falling in love right alongside Kiki. Truly the entire friend group is the best. Highly highly recommend everyone to run, don’t walk, to your local bookstore/library and pick this up.

A really awesome, fun, funny, and emotional new adult romance. The characters are so funny and honest and real. I love the romance and the fake dating trope has a special place in my heart. There is also a really powerful message of community and female friendship that I enjoyed. It always makes a romance book more dynamic and multifaceted when there is a lot of depth to the other relationships.
