I loved this book! I know I’m a bit behind on the bandwagon but it was still worth the read! 
The story was sweet, the love even sweeter. Gets very spicy at moments. Made me feel every emotion from my gut. I couldn’t put it down once I started it. 

Read was medium/fast pace. The story keeps you hanging on every second.  Absolutely recommend!

This was a very sweet read. I loved the characters and the storyline. 

I just had an issue with how love the chapters were. They definitely could've been split up into much shorter chapters and it would've been so much easier to read. And another issue that is due to the long chapters was the timing of the book. This book spans over about a year. And there would be weeks passing in the middle of a chapter and sometimes it wasn't all that clear that it happened and it would pull me out of the story. It would've been so much easier had the a new chapter started when there was a jump in time.

Other than those two things, I thought this book was great and I'd absolutely recommend if you're looking for something sweet to read.

Amazing writing, they wrote banter incredibly well, it was smart and had layers to the meaning and the characters. I was laughing and crying throughout. Such an amazing story

All minor content warnings, they’re not graphic and shouldn’t be too distressing, hopefully. I still highly recommend reading it!
