Not life changing, but a cute read! I did read all in one sitting, and the switch in perspectives was well done. The forced proximity/enemies to lovers tropes are acknowledged but I appreciate that this book didn’t try to be life changing, it just was a good, not super intense read with a little bit of emotion. Macy’s quote about forgiveness is something that I needed to read when I read it.

This was my least favorite Tarah book but I would still die for Deacon and LaRynn. I’m always a sucker for a childhood friends/highschool sweethearts/second chance romance and this one was so funny while also not losing that angst that comes with first heartbreak. LaRynn is one of the most relatable heroines I’ve come across, and while the story wasn’t as captivating to me personally as FF and Rootbound, I felt so connected to the characters, and their flaws had me rooting for them even more??? Also this book gave me my first “my wife” moment and I swear it changed me on a molecular level. This woman is magic and I want to know wtf she puts in her books.

Fun premise and audiobook listen - especially loved how the mistrust between both characters was written in an entirely believable way - they have to actively take steps to listen better to one another which I don't often see in romance. I wished it could have been *slightly* spicier a little earlier on, but still really solid!

The main guy character in this book talking about getting a tattoo only for the main guy character in Funny Feeling to get a tattoo warmed my hopeless romantic heart. This book is a solid five starts, there are no faults in this book. Tarah Dewitt is the newest author that I'm obsessed with.

SURPRISINGLY good! Their rivalry to romance felt very natural, and this whole story felt very real. Loved it!

This book gave very 'You Deserve Each Other' vibes with the forced proximity, emotional baggage and second chance trope but I was all for it! I really enjoyed the writing (it wasn't cringy therefore it is good because that is literally how low the bar is right now) and the pacing of the book, but it did feel a little rushed in some places. Love the name La Rynn, it's so pretty, and her character development gave me all the good feels. Deacon was a bit forgettable though. Overall a cute romance to drown out the sorrows of life in :)
