4.5⭐️ This is not my usual genre, but I really enjoyed it! I’m going to find it hard to walk away from these characters, they wound their way around my heart ❤️
Loved the mental health rep, and adored the curvy FMC with an attitude and her struggles with self love and self confidence. Both MC’s have complicated pasts and family emotional trauma and it was so nicely handled and carefully explored.
This was such an easy read—very bingeable, I could not put it down—and was thinking about how to get back to it when I had to

slow start
Started off really slow. I almost did not finish it, but I’m glad I stuck it out!
It ended up surprising me and now I can’t wait to read the next one!

okay so i will probably be screaming about this book at the top of my lungs for a very long time.
playboy turns into a simp ✅
sassy female lead who puts said playboy in his place ✅
enemies (ish) to lovers ✅
mental health rep ✅
ex sees her with his favourite NHL player ✅ (absolutely ate that scene btw)
i LOVE zee and vee with my whole heart and i will do anything to protect them. their individual struggles felt so real to me. vee who struggled with body dysmorphia and zee who struggled with abandonment issues and panic attacks. i love how mental health was talked about in this book! zanders is an expert at how to love yourself, and i definitely learned a thing or two from him, even though he leaned towards the avoidant side. and i absolutely stan stevie for being such a badass, i loveee her confidence. but seeing stevie and zanders grow as characters and healing from their trauma was beautiful and i would do anything to witness it for the first time. there is a 3rd act break up but NOTHING about it made me feel frustrated, if anything the only emotion i felt for several chapters was sadness because of how real it felt, it was extremely well done. i usually don't cry for 3rd act break ups but this was so well written that i couldn't hold my tears back anymore (and the last time i cried like that was when i read beach read)
"what happens when you need love, but then you don't have it?" DONE IM DONE IM CRYING.
and i loved how it was perfectly wrapped up when they reunited, "you following me?" GAHD. after thoroughly enjoying 2 of her books, its safe to say that liz tomforde is my new favourite author <333 i think im gonna re-read the right move now ok bye
