4.5

As a semi-recovered people pleaser who loves a found family trope, this book hit me right in the heart. I saw bits of myself in Harriet, Sabrina, and Cleo and as much as this book is a romance, it was the friendship that made me want to reach out to my own friend group and let everyone know how much I love them. 

Frankly the only thing preventing it from being a full 5 ⭐️ read for me was the level of miscommunication happening for a solid 90% of the book. I get that it was the foundation the book was built on, but at times it made me want to scream.
