I enjoyed this contemporary fiction novel with elements that reminded me a little of Pride and Prejudice immensely! The author weaved a beautifully diverse and epic love story. I listened to the audiobook, and it really brought the characters to life for me. I adored these characters and the diversity represented. EJ, Tessa, and Jamie were three best friend trying to find out who they were and how they fit into a world that didn’t always accept them. I loved their friendship, the strong women supporting strong women, and the watching them find themselves. Will and Lee were revelations. They loved so freely and never felt like secondary characters! They made the story so much richer. The plot unfolded perfectly and held my interest. The ending made me feel alllll the feels and wrapped up the story beautifully. This book reminded me of all the possibilities and open endedness in that last year of college before stepping into the adult world. If you love a good romance with enemies to lovers vibes, self discovery, and badass women do not sleep on this book!
