This was a really good clean contemporary romance. I will definitely be reading more Katherine Center. However, going into this with everyone telling me it was going to be a 5 star was a mistake; I think it put too much pressure on the book

The book was a good read but something about the romance didn't really sit with me.

Despite Hannah being a bodyguard, her character felt boring? Idk, I can't put my finger on it and whilst I was rooting for Hannah, I didn't really care for Jack.

Deals with some heavy topics, but always maintains a lighthearted vibe, and it was that combo I wasn’t sure how much I liked.
