“Once upon a time, I thought I’d gotten over him.
Turns out, I’m still waiting for him to kiss me back.”

i'm a lil bit disappointed. i was excited for months for this and then when it came out, i saw all those reviews i was skeptical.

it wasn't "bad", it was just so boring. i feel like this trope is so overused that authors need to add something unique or else its a carbon copy of another book.

i loved nate. i hated gwen. i didn't see any chemistry between them and i just felt like nate was babysitting her the whole time. the girl goes ahead grinds on guys even tho she has a husband, she jumps into pools while drunk. i love age gap romances but god this was bad because gwen acted like an oversized toddler.

i'm just sad because i wanted to love this but i just have no feelings towards it. it wasn't the worst rina kent book but it was nowhere as good as her other books. it was average that i'm probs not gonna remember even reading this book.
