This has been my favorite novel she has written so far. It would have been 5 stars if the ending didn’t drag on. Less flashbacks and fun banter with the MCs.

Literally the perfect beach read. This book found me at the perfect time. Yes, it relies on tropes, but it all makes sense. Along with that, they are tropes I don’t read often, so nothing felt overdone. I loved how this book not only depicts romantic love, but also the importance of love between friends. Im really a sucker for found family. There was also a heavy emphasis on personal growth as well. As someone coming up on her late twenties and feels like life can be so repetitive, I especially appreciated the third part that talks about how hard change is, but also how crucial it can be as well. I loved literally all the characters and the growth you got to see throughout years of their lives. I truly cannot sing enough praises for this story
