I LOVE HARRISON VALENTINE!!!

Harrison and Grace were seriously so perfect. There is nothing that compares to a friend-to-lovers story for me! Harrison and Grace have been besties since birth and grew up together. While they had acknowledged their feelings for each other in the past, they ultimately decided to prioritize their friendship and not do anything about it. They remained friends as both of them moved on with their lives and other people. But of course, in their hearts, they could never truly move on.

They were always good about keeping the boundaries until one night there is a kiss from then on Harrison knows that he needs to give it a real shot with Grace, but Grace still doesn't want to risk their friendship so they end up being in limbo on what to do next. 

Harrison was the best! I totally understood his actions, even in the third act break up. I think he had a picture for his life, and he knew he needed to make it happen one way or another. While he preferred his life to be with Grace, she wouldn't risk that, so he needed to accept that from her and figure out what to do next for himself. 

Grace was definitely a stubborn one! Although I understood her reasonings for wanting to keep the boundaries, I was shaking my book hoping that they would both open their eyes to what everyone around them was seeing between them!! I loved seeing all of Harrison's siblings give him grief about their situation, the sibling relationship is something that I always look forward to in these books, and it didn't let me down.

The angst, the banter, the chemistry, the whirlwind of a romance!! LOVED LOVED LOVED THEM SO MUCH!!! Cannot waittt to see the Valentine siblings again.
