I've honestly always liked slow burns once they're done right and this did it for me. It's not the best writing out there and definitely not the intense burn at the end that you yearn for when ending off a slow burn. But the way that I got so attached to where the two main characters would end up and how, had me in a serious chokehold. I could not put down this book for the life of me and honestly I regret nothing. 

If you're not into slow burn I definitely would not recommend this because it is a long book that has a lot of repetitive inner dialogue, which can definitel annoy some people. But, if you were into Wattpad romances as a teen, it may seriously give you so much nostalgia of those days but with a lot more consistent writing. 

All in all, I loved the ride this book took me on and I'd definitely re-read because I'm a sucker for love i know I'd never have :').
