Then Warren was such an unnecessary dick when he first met Chloe that I was immediately “no” to him. I got so grossed out that he let his friend blatantly check Chloe out to the point of making her uncomfortable in her own home. Just ew all around. Oh! And his bursts of anger that turned him violent but never against Chloe (thank god)?? Come the fuck on. Let’s just sprinkle in a hint at potential abuse that he never does because he loves her too much (gag).
This book felt like an Abbi Jimenez book because there was so much trauma. It was relied on heavily as main plot points and ways to move the story forward and it just feels cheap to me.
I wanted to DNF when I was about 10% of the way in and honestly I should’ve.

But omg, this book was so so good. I got to the last page of the bonus epilogue and just felt so good. Like this book is a warm cup of tea or a cozy blanket on a chilly night. I’m so glad I listened to everyone about how good it was and bought a copy. And now I can’t wait to read EVERYTHING else Hannah puts out.
Chloe and Warren’s journey was so nice to watch. And to see them go from reluctant partners to not quite team members to a united front, in love and then to them being a family unit was the best. Two people who deserved all the happiness and find their partner in one another. Also just thinking about Warren being the only dad Willow will ever know just makes me emotional.
I would’ve liked to see another moment with Luke and Warren after the motel moment, as well as Chloe and her adoptive mom sitting down and working their shit out but I still really enjoyed the story.
The book was funny, heartwarming and emotional with characters easy to root for. Can’t wait to read Next to You soon!
