The first book I've read by Jackie Lau was the half novel that came after this, based on Julie, the younger sister of this novel's main female lead, Charlotte. I enjoyed it enough and it's a breath of fresh air having to Asian main leads. I feel like books in this series do not have to be read in order, but may make more sense if they are but each could hold their own. 

Now let's focus back on this novel. I truly enjoyed it. I think it's because I could relate to Charlotte quite a bit in terms of my personality. I am also a HUGE sucker for the childhood friends to lovers trope. It's one of my favorites.
I am very glad there wasn't a fight scene or the break up due to bad communication or nothing thinking they're worthy of the other
