I really loved this book. Best book I’ve read in a while, it was very sweet and refreshing! I loved the alternating timeline each chapter and how you got to see their love story unfold in two different times. It was beautifully written and was a lovely read. My only problem with it was that the ending felt a bit rushed. There was a ton of build up to the conversation they needed to have and it was over too quickly and easily fit my taste. Oh and also I don’t really ever read smut but I have read a little bit before, and I was not a fan of the spicy scenes in this book. It was a small enough part of the book to not take away from it too much but it did bother me, they were just written really weird. Might’ve just been me but it was hard to tell what was actually happening. So if you’re looking for something spicy, I wouldn’t go for this book. This one is more for someone looking for a very sweet, emotional, slow burn friends to lovers. Overall a delightful read, would recommend!
