5.0

Even though the book is on the longer side for a NA romance, I felt that the story was well-paced. I really liked the way Bailey and Chase's relationship was built up from not liking each, and that it wasn't insta-love. And the spice was some of the best I've read recently. The story was also fairly sex positive.

The toxicity of Bailey's friendships was not at all something I expected going into this book, but I appreciated the aspect it added to the story. I really liked that as I was reading about how toxic her friend group was, I was also reading about her "rebuilding" her life with healthier relationships.

Overall, I enjoyed the reading experience and I would definitely recommend this book.
