"Who is she? The best part of my day"
this book in the literal sense of the book wrecked me. Jax and Elena made my heart clench. Their love story wasn't easy but it was real. They both have real problems and Jax's ones were relatable (he suffers from anxiety and panic attacks). I appreciate Lauren Asher's effort in giving awareness and showing that men going to therapy is normal. The bloody accent was everything, and he drinks morning tea!! I love the banter they have while living together and the Caleb scenes. All the little things they do for each other are just wholesome, like when Elena swaps his pills with notes, that have all written on things they could do, or when Jax thinks she's on her period so he calls his mom and goes to the supermarket, or when he buys her night lights to help her sleep, or when Jack organizes this whole thing for Elena, where they have to do each other's makeup as a couple, just like she had mentioned loving watching them. Liam's cameos are the best and I reevaluated him. Once I understood the cover meaning my heart felt complete.

Lauren Asher’s writing is tastefully diverse, and this novel just proves that tenfold. Not only are the mc’s racially diverse, but the attention to detail regarding Huntingtons disease and Alzheimers are impressive. Considering both are genetic illnesses, it adds an extra level of curiosity to the future of Jax & Elena.
