We love a man who protects his woman. 
The way Nash barely tried to fight being attracted to his best friend's younger sister 🀣🀣 but when it came to his over protective alpha male instinct πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ½ sign me right tf up. 
I greatly appreciate the barely 3rd act breakup. 
What do you expect when you just ran back home after a toxic relationship to find your brother's best friend all grown up and completely different than what you remember? What's that saying "Save a horse ride a cowboy" 🀣🀣 and ride the cowboy did she LMFAO. 
Mhhh the angst and forbidden nature in this book were just perfect. Knowing damn well they shouldn't do anything but not being able to resist it. Personally loved the friend group LMFAO they were the perfect group of friends to keep you honest but have you burning calories from laughing too much. 
I really want to know about everyone lol like there are so many little moments that have me like "oop will they be a couple?" Can't wait to read more of this series.
