this is an ♾️ ⭐️ read for me 🫶🏼

I absolutely devoured this story and its characters. I can only think of ONE thing i was not in love with and that’s that it ended 😆 

this story is raw and messy and heartbreaking and it hurts and it shines and it rips you apart but eventually puts you back together at the end. 

This story has a lot of triggers that you definitely need to review before diving in because your mental health is most important. It’s giving second chance romance, right person, wrong time, found family and small town romance vibes.

I think it’s very rare an author writes characters that are just so deeply well done. Tristan, Evan, Noah, Callie, Zoey, Ian, Carter, Craig, Anna, Bailey.. literally every single character no matter their level of important bled off the page. They were relatable and you rooted for them. You wanted them to have it all. 

I will absolutely read more by this author. I will probably never shut up about this book and story so i will def be recommending it to anyone who will listen. 

Melissa did something really special with this one. 

PS i want books about the side couples, please and thanks. (Noah & Bailey, Craig and Callie, Zoey and Tyler) could be like same timeline different couples.
