3.5-4 stars.

I just love how short the chapters are. It makes it such a fast read and so enjoyable. I also didn’t realize this story was on Brendan and Erin so that was such a fun surprise after reading waking olivia, not sure how I didn’t put 2 and 2 together.

Sweet and Romantic

I’m not one for love triangles but I devoured this book in mere hours. It didn’t have the gripping desperation and slow burn of “waking Olivia” but it was a sweet consuming story.

Erin and Brendan

Man, oh man. I cannot believe I waited as long as I did to read this heartwrenching, emotional, amazing book.

Brendan and Erin were amazing. I liked reading about Brendan's past and Erin's present. I liked reading about their truths and withdrawals.

This was a sexy, swoony, breathtaking story about letting go of who you THINK you should be and becoming who you are MEANT to be.
emotional hopeful tense medium-paced

Oh wow. I had really high hopes for this book. I am a sucker for the siblings best friend and pining/unrequited love tropes but man, don't add in a love triangle to the mix!

Not only that, this book had too many toxic people! I mean, Harper was the only character here that spoke the truth!

I may be too triggered, so I may be biased but I just wanted Erin to walk away from all the toxic people in her life - her parents, her brother, her fiance, and most especially the douche that is Brendan! Ughhh
