Squish!!! Very much love love loved the story of Allie and Dean who we have met in the two previous installments but got to know deeper about in this. Their love story is so cute and I love how similar they are or at least their thoughts. I wouldn’t even classify this as a trope book, just a good ol fashioned relationship.

This was definitely my favourite book in the series so far! This was a great balance of romance and heart, and kept those harder hitting topics. There is so much that happens in here and it was so well done.
I love a reformed playboy MMC, and Dean is great, the exhibitionist playboy who spends his time partying and drinking, becoming infatuated with Allie after a one night stand. I love a MMC who doesn’t think he deserves love, so getting to se Dean be the first person Allie called was so great.
This really didn’t shy away from the harder topics, Allie with her dad’s MS and her Mum dying when she was young, and how all of this had impacted her and shaped who she became and the future she was planning. In contrast Dean didn’t have much hardship in his past, a messy break up which he is still being blamed for, but the Life of Dean was easy, but seeing his grief and how he dealt with it and the mistakes that he made were so impactful.
I will say this is the one time I think the third act break up kind of works (I still didn’t love it because I hate a third act break up) after everything that happened and everything that was going on, they weren’t right for each other at that point, they needed to take time for themselves and figure out what it was that they wanted to do.
