's review

it was ok

2.5

S/o to all the healthcare workers, EMT, firefighters, police officers etc. You guys MATTER! If it were not for you I might not have finished this book.

Things I loved:
1. The FMC and MMC are in their 30s.
2. The dog's name is Gertie.
3. The MMC writes secret emails to FMC.

Tropes:
1. Friends to Lovers

Summary: Claire and Graham are roommates who decide to get married when they are 40 if they do not have any other potential prospects hence name roommate pact. After a week or whatever they decide that instead of that plan they can be F-buddies instead but only when their other roommate leaves for their month long vacation. Graham has a hiking accident that leaves him with broken ribs and a broken leg. Claire assumes the role of caregiver and they have lots of intimate moments. They get to know each other on a deeper level, discuss their fears and do other "things" also. Graham falls first and once he expresses feelings Claire gets scared because she doesn't want to be in a relationship with someone who has a dangerous career b/c her father died as a pilot.

The FMC was so annoying and was hot n cold. She states, "But the thought Graham might fall in love with me was never on my radar. This is all his fault really." Like wtf you met his family and talked to him on an intimate but didn't think he could possibly fall in love??!!

The MMC is just meh. Nothing special.

Sabrina Damn 2 stars, sorry this was a disappointment. I do like the secret letters aspect to this but understand your reasons for not liking it bc I wouldn’t either. Nothing worse than an annoying fmc and a meh mmc. Hoping you have better luck with your next read! Amazing review anyway 🩷
