I found this book incredibly heart warming and sweet. I had read From Lukov With Love before this one and didn't even realise that this was about Jasmine's sister before I read it. It was a lovely surprise and it was great to read the snippets of Jas in this one, she is one of my favourite Mariana Zapata characters.
Onto this book, I loved reading the letters and IM Messages between Aaron and Rosie, even if they took up a really large part of the book (I didn't expect anything else from the queen of slow burns). I loved imagining what each of them was feeling when they received a new message from the other., although I would have loved some confirmation about whether what they felt was romantic. My prayers were answered when we finally got to peak into Rosie's head and realise she had fallen for Aaron, as we did, and their meeting was definitely my favourite part of the whole book.
I thought their relationship was incredibly cute and that neither of them made me especially mad at any point, which, as ever, is extremely difficult to achieve.
