A review by katkejt
French 75 by Addison Beck
Skylar • Cassius
….
“Everything we’ve been through has led to this moment when I choose you.”
….
Best friends to lovers is a trope that I feel can be one of the hardest to be tackled by authors. Especially when the characters are very much codependent with each other. I think Addison did an amazing job with these tropes - showing that we always search for more, look everywhere but everything we really want is in the palm of our own hands.
I loved with a passion (just writing this makes me sappy) how Cas showed Sky how he should be treated, what he should never settle on, what he deserves and how great they could be. I know Cas is the one that runs around Sky but I never felt any imbalance between their dynamic. Sky didn’t even know he’s doing the same thing, straying from his gift from life. I think both of these characters from the start till the end cared about each other like no other. Maybe the circumstances brought them together and molted them to be so codependent on each other - but both were lucky enough to run in to each other because like no other deserved their happiness - separately and with each other.

“I do what I do every time he needs me. Even though it kills me. Even though it fills me with false hope. Even though it costs a bit of my heart every time.” // “It’s all okay. Because, when I can just forget and let myself go, I almost believe I’m special.” // “So, I hold him. I keep him pressed against my body where he’s safe. I let us sit in our little bubble of peace for just a little bit longer. Because there’s no darkness when we’re together.” // “What was that about?” // “Even though, when I spot Cassius on the stage, looking like everything I want and smiling at me like I could be what he wants, my heart skips in a way it never has before.” // “…a soft exchange of breath, a sweet representation of what we really are to each other. Soulmates.” // “My blood pounds and my mind soars, and I can only hope that I’ll feel this way for the rest of my life.” …
