Wow I really loved this book. When I saw LE Todd’s ARC post, I immediately thought I could relate to the protagonist’s love for period pieces and OCD (I have ADHD, not 100% similar but there are struggles to it). Thank you for gifting me your art! Not only was this book a slow burn steamy romance that I absolutely loved, it was a chance to look deeper within and realize that we can’t always jump to conclusions without all of the facts and it is also necessary to take the hint when it is given to you. I really loved Tristan’s character and how thoughtful he was towards Rose. This book had a great ending and made me swoon very hard for this character and also really put me in Rose’s perspective and my heart felt what she felt in both her good and bad sentiments.
Protagonist: Rose 🌹 is a college student studying architecture who struggles with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), self-doubt, and overthinking who copes by watching period pieces.
Summary: Rose has struggled to manage her OCD all her life until a certain hockey player (brother’s best friend) walks into her life and begins to taunt her with the spoilers of all of the movies she rents. She finds it hard being what seems like an outsider to the rest of the world. So she takes to being inside her own world by diving into movies 🍿 and staying there. When Tristan makes it a habit of spoiling every movie she watches, she decides to get revenge. Except one special someone doesn’t see her as an outsider. Will she figure out her issues and be with the one person who sees her for who she is and not her condition? And will he ever stop spoiling the movies?
Vibes: Enemies to Lovers, Brother’s Best Friend, Slowburn, Young Adult Romance, Sexual + Romantic Tension
