Uhhhh….okay. Um, it was fine. The first part when they are younger is incredibly endearing and I really enjoyed it. How much can you say to someone in between the sentences? I was kinda put off by them in the present time, everything happened (and didn’t happen) way too fast. Elliot always seemed pushy, even if he wasn’t trying to be and Macy felt like she would just go along with whatever Elliot wanted… eventually. I didn’t care for the twist, the kind of ‘drama’ it added did not have time to breathe at all. The last few chapters in present day seemed thrown together. But I did read the majority of it (like 85% of it) in a day, I was entertained and it wasn’t too painful. 

Just check the content warnings.

Her dad dies in a car accident, and a girl sexually assualts him while he is drunk at a party and he does not consent to the girl, but he thinks it’s the FMC… and then they don’t really talk about it. Also the FMC’s fiance's ex has substance abuse problem and they are kinda shamey to her throughout the book

chocolatechump's review against another edition

There was too much sex in the book for me.  There was also a lot of swearing that I had to skip over.  The story is cute and I’m invested in their story.  But, I don’t need that kind of story/drama in my life.
