Saidy has some legitimate concerns about how her boyfriend Fletcher is treating her. And so when she enters in a contest and gets a trophy dubbing him the World's Worst Boyfriend, she feels validated enough to call it quits.
But, she can't seem to get Fletcher out her head or her life. And perhaps that's a sign that she doesn't need to completely expel him from her heart. Perhaps he can redeem himself. He does keep telling her he'll explain everything soon. Will it make up for all the nonsense he has put her through?
_____
This book is exhibit A in why dual POV romance books are the best! Saidy has every reason to despise Fletcher because of his actions, and yet when you get his POV you get layers of nuance and the story explodes with perspective.
I loved the stakes of this one and how they both had to shed preconceived ideas from their past to be able to move forward individually and as a couple.
I love a straight forward rom com, but one like this, with a bit of mystery and adventure, is really just adding a cherry on top of the whole experience!
_____
This is a closed door, kisses only rom com. It is part of a series but can be read as a stand alone.
