Could this be my new favorite CoHo book? Very much so. OMG (those who read it will understand lol), I could not put it down, I don’t think I ever felt so angry at fictional characters as I did with some from “Confession”, and loved others with the same intensity. This book is amazing. I can’t stop thinking about it, guess I’ll have to watch the series now.

This book is a rollercoaster of emotions, I went from smiling to crying. Despite being part of the 'insta love' trope the book develops in to so much more than that and the connection between the characters is so believable. The book moves so quickly and I love that we get to see Auburn's and Owen's POV's as we really get to get in to the characters feelings and emotions. It's my first COHO book and I can't wait to read more from her. A truly amazing and heart wrenching book would definitely recommend but please read trigger warnings before hand.

So close to 5 stars. Has the coho vibes but wasn’t as impactful as “ugly love” and the mc annoyed me at times. Love this book but it’s missing that extra 0.25% coho. I think my expectations were too high so it just missed the mark.
