Part Two of my January Wrap Up!!
I came across this while searching for "best friends to lovers" story and wasn't disappointed. Schiller does a good job alternating perspectives between Kyle and Laine. It was exciting to see what would happen in the end.
Conflicting Part (See picture above):
This was after the two main characters have sex for the first time. Says it was the best he ever had. A lot of people in reviews said they hated that line. I'm conflicted.
On one hand I scoffed too.
On the other, you could chalk it up to him finally being in love and that's the way he shows it. By calling her the best.
I don't know. Either way, I felt the story was solid but wasn't executed well.
Pros:
The main couple has a spark. They were well paired. It was just too rushed. The two actually talk to each other (until the end but yeah, can't have it all).
Plot was solid. I bought it.
Had a 28 year old virgin which was nice to see. Not everyone loses their virginity when they are teenagers.
Cons:
The main guy falls too easily for a ladies man.
The main girl varies from innocent to all knowing in a single paragraph.
You could argue they are like this because they are both putting on fronts but yeah.
The nice guy turns out to be vicious. Yeah, no. We as an audience don't get to spend much time with him to deal with the whiplash.
Rushed. Any great possible plot point is rushed or isn't allowed to be developed naturally.
I read this book in an hour. I have LOTS of thoughts but right now I'm conflicted on so much. Sometimes I have to remind myself it's just a romance novel and I need to let certain things go. Hmmm...review to come.
I forking loved this book! :) New favorite NA! Full review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1555340537?book_show_action=false
