I feel like anybody who knows about this book has already read it so I’m probably not gonna say anything that hasn’t been said before. That being said somebody try and shut me up, and you will not succeed ✌🏻
My first book by EH and I was captivated by her storytelling. A slower pace book and yet I was hooked from the very beginning 🥺
It was a beautiful, heartwarming, emotional story that shows not everything in life is perfect or how we initially expect it but sometimes it can be if you give it a chance and believe in it, and I personally thought that was beautiful. Safe to say January and Gus will remain in my heart for a very long time❤️🩹
Both were both complex characters, with their own family dynamics, that found their way towards each other for a second time to stay. Talk about being shocked to the core and yet coming stronger on the other side of it. I laughed at their banter and cried at their heart aches but above all I loved them through their self-discovery journey, both alone and together.
I don’t know how the rest of her books can get any better than this but I’m excited to find out 💓
Tropes:
-college rivals turned neighbours
-grumpy x sunshine
-second chance
-forced proximity
