Always Mine by Laura Pavlov

5.0

I am a sucker for a good friends to lovers book and this checked all the boxes for me.
Niko had a hardened exterior for everyone except his best friend since kindergarten, Vivian. Lovingly called “Honey Bee.” Their connection was beautiful from the beginning of the book. What I also appreciated is that Laura did not wait to give us any spice. I feel like we got a really well rounded story. The other thing that I really loved about this book is many FMC are timid or give the vibe of being meek because of their past traumas. But Vivi didn’t and I really loved that. She was super loving and tender hearted but didnt give off the vibe of being weakened by her circumstances. It was so refreshing to read her character.
And her family was everything. I loved the supporting characters just as much as the main. Dylan may or may not be my spirit animal. Lol.
I loved the whole book. Great read for 2022.
