This was a cute and unique romance. the beginning was amazing to me and the development of their friendship was my favorite part. however, there were some parts in this book that just had me rolling my eyes.

like the part where there’s a weirdly stereotypical bullying scene between jocks and a nerd where the protagonist helps him?? it literally added nothing to the story and just made me so confused. also when archers dads wife somehow finds out about the protagonists life history and uses it to pull the guy to tried to rape her from her past to kill her????? like it felt so far fetched and stupid i did not understand how anyone could fully get past that. 

also i kinda felt like the protagonist was kinda pushy. if not for that i could’ve enjoyed this so much more :/

I enjoyed this book and the fact it was quite different, the Hero being mute and all. 

Some parts were a little frustrating (the part where he couldn't live without her but then left for 3 months with no contact?)
The epilogue annoyed me with the "got married and had babies" but overall it was a nice story and I did smile a lot. I loved Archer and wish we'd had more from his POV.

i thought this book was well done and it ended up growing on me the further in the story i got. the writing is very simple, the story well delivered. the characters don’t have much nuance really, the bad characters are so clearly bad and the good are so clearly good. but i guess the simplicity of it made it charming. 

archer and bree are so supportive, encouraging and kind to each other in the gentlest ways, it was my favorite thing about their romance.
