Oof this one was sad for a while!  Brodan and Monroe were childhood best friends and then everything changed when he left to college. Roe has always been in love with Bro and while he feels the same, loss won't allow him to cross those lines with her in fear that he'll lose her too. After a drunken mistake with his brother, Roe left town. Its been 18 years since they've seen each other. And every time he sees her, he's just awful. I don't think I've ever wanted to punch an MMC more than him! 👊🏼 They both realize that all their time lossed was based off a misunderstanding. Bro definitely had his work cut out for him to get her to forgive the way he treated her. They both had a lot of emotional healing to do with their past trauma as well. Such a great ending to this series.
