First off this book deserves so much more love and hype than it gets (me personally, I never see anything about it) and second off my gosh these 2 are probably my favorite couple. This book was literally everything. Beau and Bailey. My god they stole my heart. I will admit I was hesitant to go into this book cause I have seen some not great reviews for it. I could not put it down and I’m obsessed with these 2. Sweet Beau. I don’t even know where to start. His whole story was just, I can’t even put into worlds. My heart broke for this man. Then watching him feel safe enough to be himself and not have to hide the dark parts. The way he sat at that barstool every night just to make sure Bailey was safe and just how he protected her in her general 🥺. Also, the mouth on this man 🫠 I died. Then you have sweet Bailey who doesn’t deserve any of the shit given to her. She so stupid strong and then watching her finally stand up for herself was just everything. Just reading about these 2, the way they both were able to be themselves and not have to hide any of it. Just yes. I’m also just a hoe for fake engament. The chemistry and the tension with these 2 was *chefs kiss*. Bailey always getting up at 2:11 no matter what to help this man and Beau just moving her trailer to his house just so she can have somewhere safe and just taking care of her when she’s never been taken care of ever. I just can’t. I’m obsessed. Honestly though Gary, Gary is the real MVP and honestly I feel in love with him as well. I giggled everytime this man came on page and just the way he was a father figure to Bailey even if she didn’t realize it. I will be back to visit these 2 again because they are forever in my heart 💚.
