As y'all well know (or at least can see rather clearly) I am in quite the reading slump. I have struggled reading all year and have not had many books I truly have loved. After a week of reading this though, strap in bitches because WE ARE BACK AND, FRIENDS, ARE WE BACK IN THE BEST OF WAYS. I am feral over this book and oh god I love it so fucking much.
The Characters
Chloe:Chloe, girlie, I don't know that I could relate more to a character when it comes to the general "fuck around and find out" attitude while also just maintaining the most deadpan sarcasm and I LOVE IT. And her notes and lists and organization skills? All over it. Have y'all seen my new digital planner yet? I have my whole week mapped out the best that I can to a T. And if you roll in changing shit on me, I WILL be skressed. S I get it, girlie, I really do.
Red: Redford. Oh my god. If my heart could belong to a man more... fuck if I know would happen. He honestly is the absolute best and I cannot wait for y'all to attempt to change my mind. The way he loves Chloe and gives her exactly what she needs while not making her seem incapable due to her fibromyalgia is so beautiful. And at the end, his whole thing about how he will survive without her, he just doesn't want to? Y'all if there was ANYTHING that I read that I need to take to heart, it was that shit.
Things I Loved
I honest to fuck loved the whole book. I don't have any complaints and will now and forevermore be shouting about this book from the fucking rooftops.
Things I Didn't Love
As I said, no issues. I literally cannot think of one. My whole heart belongs to this book.
The Final Verdict
I know I threaten y'all frequently about reading books, but this one? This one is for fucking real. If you do not go read this book right now we are no longer book besties and I will be promptly unfollowing you the second I find out. Now, go. Before I change my mind and make you listen to me recount the entire book, Southern mannerisms and all.

Immediately I had a laugh out loud moment in the first paragraph and knew from the get-go, this was going to be good. This felt like a feel good series you would cuddle up on the couch and enjoy. Chloe and her stubborn personality is so relatable, I felt too seen LOL. Especially her love for animals 🤍🫠
Chloe felt like a lifelong friend whom was giving us an update on what's been going on in her life.
But the number of laugh out loud moments I experienced in straight up ILLEGAL!!! No book, I say, no book should have me both feeling real feelings and a page-turn away, laughing while clutching my side. So thankful this is a trilogy so I ca n read the supportive, loving and comical perspective from her sisters, Eve and Dani. 🥰

Overall, the plot centers around the building of a relationship between two characters that happens over the course of two weeks. It’s an unhealthy start, an unhealthy middle, and I guess they live happily ever after, but..,it didn’t sit very well with me. It romanticized an emotionally charged and reckless relationship.
Some may find it enjoyable. If that’s your kind of book, I guess it’s okay. I wouldn’t go out of my way to recommend it to my friends and family.

Chloe and Red are both adorable characters, with lots of their own baggage. Seeing them work through things together as well as on their own was wonderful to read. And their email banter had me grinning the entire time.
I can’t wait to get to know Chloe’s family better in Talia Hibbert’s other books!
If you’re looking for a cute, funny, heartwarming, and sexy read look no further!
