A lot of times, the friends-to-lovers trope is a miss for me, simply because the conflict never seems believable. I just think to myself âugh, if youâre in love, just get together already, why all the angst? It neednât be this difficult!â But with this one, I feel like I really did empathize with Jasmineâs reluctance to see what was right in front of her (and then to sabotage it when it could no longer be ignored). I appreciated her character development a lot.
As is always the case, Hibbertâs writing is accessible and enjoyable, I would recommend this to anyone and everyone.

The Roommate Risk was tooooo good. I loved Jasmine and Rahul so much! Their story was genuinely captivating and I was invested in their respective character arcs. I think the level of detail and care that went into developing these arcs was obvious and therefore added so much depth and vulnerability to the story. Jasmine and Rahul aren't together simply because of one stupid reason or another. And when those reasons are revealed to the reader, it raises the stakes even higher for their love. Like I said before, this book is all angst and longing buuuut, it is so damn satisfying. Get into this book asapppp!
A pet peeve: I wish the cover would accurately depict Rahul! Rahul is described as having BROWN skin and CURLY hair. And not for nothing that man on the cover looks white and his hair looks straight! So what gives??Â
