Next To You by Hannah Bonam-Young

4.5

4.5 stars rounded to 5. Fantastic friends to lovers/he fell first (AND HARD) book. I loved everything about it. The bus reno, the banter between Matt and Lane, working through trauma/PTSD. All of HBY books have mental health/disability representation and I am here for it. I was worried at about the half way point where the book was going, but I loved the journey for Lane going through her past trauma of losing her father and the relationship problems it caused between her and Matt. A little disappointed that Matt said he would wait, but then less than two chapters later losing his patience and leaving (3rd act breakup). He throughly makes up for it and the reuniting trip Lane made had me internally squealing for the grand gesture to get him back.
