i adored this. hannah and garrett have my heart. the spice was amazing, the tenderness and love between these characters! i loved the honesty and communication between them and the way their love story developed. wasn’t a fan of the reason for the 3rd-act break-up but i loved garrett’s unwavering faith in their love to get the answers he needed to get them back together. i loved hannah’s viewpoints about her past and that they both helped each other to heal parts of themselves that hadn’t yet healed from their past traumas but i liked how hannah had already healed a lot and had a good viewpoint from the experiences of her past.

the only thing i didn’t like was that there was no resolution to hannah’s parents situation, it felt unresolved

this book 😭😭 hannah’s past hit so close to home for me. years ago, i needed a garrett graham. thankfully i have my own version 🥹 but i’m so happy i gave it a second chance because this book now means so much to me and will for so damn long, i know it.

I love this book so much. 
The characters were fun to read about, even though I didn't love all of them equally the whole time. The banter between the two MCs was so fun to read.
The story itself was pretty good. As with most books, there were some problematic parts but it did not subtract too much from the reading experience as a whole.
10/10 would recommend.
