Cristina’s best work yet!

OOF solidifies Cristina as the Slow Burn master. Never have I enjoyed every second and yearned for more at the same time. I fear that all other slow burns will be unsatisfactory.

Raf is the biggest golden retriever. Every girl deserves a man like him. The one who will switch sandwiches with you even if he’s allergic to yours. Raf is the epitome of devotion.

Charlie is a girlie pop just trying to figure life out. She dreams of life with the utmost romance and desire, but is unsure if she will ever find it. On the brink of settling and questioning all of her life’s choices, she is an incredibly relatable and lovable FMC. I could go on about her for hours!

I miss this book already. As I told Cristina, I would read encyclopedias on their relationship. I miss them already and want to re-read asap! 

Tropes:

• Frenemies to Lovers
• Intimacy Lessons
• Idiots in Love (let’s bring this back!)
• Slow Burn
• He falls first & harder
• Foreign Nicknames
• Autism & ADHD Rep

Thank you to Cristina Santos and NetGalley for supplying me with an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review!
