Good short read there were some parts I thought were unrealistic. But the overall message was sweet.

3.25

Hmmmmm… I’m not sure how to wrap up this review lol. I enjoyed it but it wasn’t at all what I was expecting and idk why tbh.
I felt like things escalated sooo fast. It started with. After Garrett seen Mia on the app and went to the lake house, everything escalated too quickly. And I hated hearing Mia say that she had been in love with him for so long. I just felt like it wasn’t genuine. A crush, I’d understand. But to be in love with him when you say all y’all do is fight felt fake to me.
Then right away they start talking about sex and I was thinking woaaahhh that was fast.
And I can’t forget the cringy writing. “Kitten” is so cringe. The words used during some the sex scenes were cringe. I just kept making that stank face. I didn’t like it all that much.

The reason this is a 3.25 star is because at the end, when we get that section of Garrett reliving 10 years ago and after when he explains his depression, I was able to relate. It was explained almost perfectly. The spiraling is real, keeping to yourself so no one really knows what you deal with is real. When Emerson said, <SPOILER>

“You think depression is something to be ashamed of, Garrett?”

I can feel that. It was probably the only time I felt something in this book.

“It felt like dark voices in my head, always telling me how bad I was, how hopeless everything was, and I had no choice but to believe it. I was the laid-back, easy-going guy. I wasn’t supposed to be depressed. So I did everything I could to hide it.”

And when Mia asked if he was ever prescribed something he said he was never diagnosed. Ugh I felt all that in my gut man. I related to Garrett and that’s the reason I gave it 3.75 stars.
And I loved at the end, he was prescribed meds and started therapy. And I especially loved how he didn’t want to start trying for a baby until he felt he had his depression under control. A lot of parents don’t work through their mental issues and it’s brought up and merged into their kids and it’s a very real thing. I love the representation of therapy and working on mental health before making huge decisions like that.
</SPOILER>
All in all, 3.25 stars ♡
🌶️🌶️🌶️/5

Just some additional content/trigger warnings and/or tropes:

Spoiler

Age gap (F-23, M-36) where he’s known her since she was a minor (nothing sexual or romantic until the ages previously listed); Step-sibling romance (zero blood relation). He’s a voyeur, she’s an exhibitionist/cam-girl/sex worker.
