This book was super short, but it packed a big punch! In just under 100 pages, we got a dual-pov tragic back story, multiple hot, steamy scenes, adorable adolescent love notes, and one of the strongest reconnection stories I've read in a long time. Maybe ever. I adored Harrick and I loved Eddie, too. I loved that his humor was able to pull Harrick out of his shell before either of them pinned down why the other felt so familiar. I really wish this book was longer, because I feel like there's so much these two have to learn about each other now, and their chemistry and sweetness was just off the charts.
