Holy shit, I am still processing this book.  I am still processing Jacob and Briana and how this will be a part of my life for years. 

I'll start by saying THIS IS HOW YOU DO A SLOW BURN. MY GOD. It wasn't even the sexual tension, it was the yearning.  Its the way these two people loved each other and didn't know how the other one felt. 

I wanted to cry so much during this book and it too me so long to finish it because I didn't want to bad things to happen to these two people I've grown to love. Jacob, a man living with anxiety and just going through the motion until he meets Briana. Briana a super strong woman, who has been through so much. Always having to put a brave face and putting everyone else before herself for so long. 

I loved every second of this book. Loved every word. Every moment. It will probably be the best book of the year for me.  Thank you so much Abby Jimenez for writing this and sharing this characters with us.  Thank you Netgalley for the e-arc of this book.
