This is by far the cutest romance I think I've read all year, if not ever. The characters are just so sweet and relatable and I found myself loving them more with every turn of the page.

On a deeper note, as a person with suspected ADHD, I found myself relating to Lizzie's character in a way that I don't feel very often. As crazy as it may sound, she feels like a part of me was taken out of my soul and poured onto pieces of paper. The feelings of being all too much and somehow not enough, the way she talked about ruining every relationship she'd had when in reality, she didn't stay long enough for it to be ruined, it's all so me. And I cannot thank Mazey enough for spreading awareness of not only neurodivergency but these specific feelings as well.

This book is SO CUTE!! I absolutely adored watching Lizzie grow and become more confident. Rake was an absolute gem as well with his patience and love for Lizzie. They both felt so alive and real. I loved them.

The miscommunication and third act breakup tropes are always a bitch, though. This book being yet another victim. I would have loved Lizzie  and Rake's character development to show them working through a miscommunication. 

I know this is technically part of a series, but I didn't like any of Lizzie's friends enough to read the other books. This works perfectly as a stand-alone and I'm happy with beginning and ending the story here.
