3/5⭐️
Overall this was a pretty average book. I wasn't very attached to this series and debated finishing. I liked this book the best out of all 4, but the 3rd act breakup knocked it down for me. It was well until that point. I also didn't like the miscommunication that happened in high school.
I did like both characters and liked the tropes that were in it. I do love a good curvy MFC and I feel like they did a good job portraying her. I did like the book references throughout.
I felt an obligation to finish the series and was an okay ending. Just kind of mediocre and i cant deal with 3rd act breakups/miscommunication tropes.

Omg did this one start out super heartbreaking. 

You’d know from the previous books how much Mary does not like Leo. So I was super intrigued by why and their backstory, which made me cry btw. I really loved how the story flowed, how much tension was between them and then when it all came to a head, incredible. You could feel the emotion coming off the narrators. They did so freaking good. 

There was an extra heartbreaking layer in this too and god I hurt for these characters. I just grew to love all of them so much and you get everything you could want by the end of this book.

i liked the book but didnt like the ending, what happens w nero? her tattooing career? leo at the end was kinda annoying but happy ever after.

Pack my schedule with more than a normal human being can handle and I’ll show you the impossible.

“You never have to apologize to me,” he said, shaking his head and silencing me with a kiss. “You can take anything out on me because you know what? I can handle it. I can take it. I can go to war for you, or with you, if it’s what you need.”

• Forced proximity (roommates)
• Enemies -> lovers
• Second chance
• College football

Leo for the win ❤️❤️❤️

I liked Mary but I thought she slightly overreacted when everything went down between Nero and Leo. She was a bit too prideful but I could relate to her with body image issues and self confidence at other points.


Side note: Giana why the hell would you announce your surprise pregnancy at the wedding in front of your partner and friends? Why wouldn’t you tell him separately first? That was cheesy as hell and weird
