She is heaven in my arms. Nothing exists outside these walls for me

I finished this book in like 6 hours. I really enjoyed it, it was lighthearted, funny, and of course so cute. I think it was the second chapter and I literally screamed because I realised they were both in love with each other. I loved Nathan, actual bae and one of my favourite book boyfriends. Bree was at times annoying, and sometimes ugh she felt like a pick me, but I still loved her and her big heart. I want to actually get the paper copy of this book because it was that good. 

My heart bursts. It's wide open, completley hers for the taking. Always has been

This book was so adorable, and the slow burn in it was amazing. I loved Nathans football friends, and how they made up a cheat sheet, that was adorable. 
I really liked how it was actually Nathan that suffered from panic attacks, it challenged the traditional role of the girl normally dealing with that stuff which was so good to see. 
This was just such a feel-good book and ik I haven't really explained anything that happens but omg love.

To my leftis a floor-to-ceiling three million dollar view of the ocean, but to my right is the view i would give my soul to see every day for the rest of my life. 








Essentially, Bree and Nathan have both been in love with each other since they were 17, however, neither has told the other one because they're scared that they will lose their friendship. Nathan goes to the NFL and Bree starts a ballet studio in LA where they reconnect their friendship. After years of pining after each other, after one drunken night, Bree accidentally spills her secret love for Nathan to a reporter. Being offered a contract with a lot of money and a sponsorship, they both agree to 'fake date' for a month. Nathan and his footy friends plot to get Bree to realise his growing feelings for her by coming up with a 'Romance Cheat Sheet' which Nathan uses different romantic ideas to get Bree to realise. And eventually, after the month is up, of course its no longer fake dating and they end up getting married yay
