Eva and Shane really got me in my feels. I don't know if it's because it has been a while since I've read a romance or because Williams just created such raw and touching moments but I felt it in my gut. I loved the growth and pacing of their relationship, but also their own personal journeys. Just a wonderful sultry read for the summer.

On the fence of giving this five stars so that may change. I LOVED this so much. It was such a rollercoaster in the best way possible. Perfect comedic timing. Such strong characters. And oh my god I loved the flashbacks/ multiple timeline that was going on. And the epilogue ✨

The only thing that was a bit confusing at times was the pov. It’s third person omniscient but like- switching between characters in the middle of a chapter. (I’m used to reading books where each chapter is dedicated to a characters thoughts). It was a fun style choice tho and I liked it once I got used to it.
