All I can say is wow this book was amazing. Each time I read I find a song that matches each character, turns out I had an entire playlist that matched this book perfectly.  I chose Myspace & I’m not god by Samoht and love quotes by Jenevieve and Bloody Samaritan by Ayra Starr for Noah. 

They had the perfect rivals to lovers relationship with barely a drop of miscommunication. Both began to realize they were missing each opportunity to be something more by having such career tunnel vision. Both had the need to prove themselves and be seen/ heard but wouldn’t discuss it. 

I saw so much of myself in both Noah & Sage that the resemblance became a little uncanny. Seeking approval, silently asking for help, and burning out to the point it felt like my head would crack open. Pulling yourself out a hole like that is very hard but when someone is there to help the weight is easier to carry. 

This was a very beautiful and intimate slow burn that gets infinite stars from me ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️♾️♾️
