I wanted to root for the MC. I just didn't feel the chemistry with this one.

Loved this :)

DNF I got to the third chapter and honestly the story line felt way too predictable and I couldn't see it getting better. I don't mind cliches but I felt like I had seen this story in a film or something it just didn't feel original.

Josh receives a great blow to his heart. He is turned down when he proposes to his girlfriend of 4 years and looses everything he has known, his girlfriend/job/and home. He decides to flip a coin for a whole year to make life decisions for him and discover strengths he didn't know he had.
This was a nice change to the normal romances I read. I liked reading from the male side and seeing the same fears, self doubts, and indecisions like myself. I loved following Josh on his journey of finding love again and rediscovering parts of himself he had lost. The friendships are genuine and believable which make for a smooth read. Bailey has a talent in bring that to the front of the story and keeping it going strong
