I really liked this book. The main character and love interest (Owen) were very cringy to me at first (not a fan of 20 yr old MCs or broody artists that treat their previous girlfriends like dirt and only FMC is the one to change him) but they both redeemed themselves by about the middle of the book.
I ended up falling in love with Owen after that scene in the shower where he reminds her she’s beautiful. I also loved the bit of them shopping the aisle at Target. It was original and cute and I found myself smiling stupidly to myself while I was reading.
I absolutely LOVED the inclusion of visuals, especially that painting he drew of Auburn. It was so beautiful. And the idea of confessions is so cute too! I have seen stuff like that before in real life so I felt it was a very believable storyline.
I despised Trey and Lydia, but loved them for the plot. Like loved to hate them! I love when there’s an obvious villain haha
Overall, this was a cute read with the perfect full circle moment and satisfying ending. I probably won’t read it again but I definitely loved it.
