3.5
This book was a solid 3.5 so not bad but not great either. I would give it 2.5 maybe a 3 in spice. You do get some hot spice but this is a slow burn and that spice doesn't come in until towards the end. It is hot but not kinky or long scenes. The plot in its self was pretty good. The twist and turns made me give this book the three stars. I really like the office romance with her boss and the fact it was grumpy sunshine was nice also. It was more her chasing him and him being the more insecure one. I did enjoy this book but I don't feel like it will stand out when looking back.

It was good, more than what I expected. I loved the MCs and definitely felt the sexual tension but the chemistry was not enough for me?? But overall, the plot, the characters, the storyline was good.

I loved the way she changed his way of thinking and she brought back his will to live. The epilogue was the perfect ending

Where do I begin... I loved this story so much that I don’t really have the words. Charlotte and Reed have the most beautiful story that pulled on my heart strings. It’s been a while since I talked out loud to both characters as much as I did to them, trying to make them talk and give it a try!
The moment Charlotte found out that Reed has MS left a hole in my heart, and I had to put the book down for a moment to process. I did think there was something ‘wrong’ with him, but this kind of massive secret he was carrying with him? My only minor issue was that it would have been good if we would have had some hints in the chapters from his POV. A minor tremor, a small struggle.
I couldn’t stop reading after that reveal, but I kept checking my phone after each chapter to make the story last longer!
The 26 years later epilogue made me so happy, I’m so glad they got to have a full life together, making the most of what it gave them, keeping hope. What a lovely way to end this beautiful and heartbreaking story
