HAPPY RELEASE DAY!!! 🥰💗 I thought I would review this book tomorrow, but I couldn't contain my excitement anymore, so here's the review!!(as soon as I finished the book for once 🤭) With happy tears rolling down my face, I am writing this� I FREAKING LOVED THIS BOOK TO PIECES 😭💘 I never thought one day I would say this, but this book just made me love the "friends-to-lovers" trope, which is a trope I generally avoid. This book was impossible to put down, even for a second, once I began reading it!! I was binge-reading it the whole night & day, sacrificing my sleep and I don't have an ounce of regret in doing it, because this book was worth it!! I loved reading everything about this book, the raw & honest relationship between Freddy & Ro, and them getting closer and healing together!! 🥺����

what to expect 💌:
� found family
� friends-to-lovers
� tutor x athlete
� slow burn
� college hockey romance
� mental health & learning differences rep.

Let's meet the cast 🎬�:

“I'd lived entire lives, thousands of them, in books. And part of me always imagined what falling in love would feel like. I'd longed for it.�

Rosalie "Ro" Shariff 👩���~ A hopeless romantic at heart, she's desperate for wanting to feel something real in her life for once. She's one of the sweetest fmcs I have read, and it really made me mad whenever her ex walked all over her, insulting her and never leaving a chance to hurt her deeply. But then enters Freddy in her life, whom she's pretty sure doesn't remember her from the freshman year party all those years ago, and now she has to tutor him for that semester.

“It's okay. The lights are off—everyone's sleeping or got headphones in. You're fine, cry if you need to. I've got you.�

Matt "Freddy" Fredderic �~ He has ADHD, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, and because of this he is failing his classes. And all his previous assigned tutors have let him down and now he gets assigned to Ro, who is his only hope of passing his classes. He's the walking greenest forest ever, he made me fall in love with him the instant I met him. He never makes anyone feel like an outsider. He treats everyone with kindness, but he is not contend with himself. He felt so lonely until he met Ro. He was so gentle, caring, and protective when it came to her. He made my heart melt many times and also made my heart ache for him many times 🤧

The way Ro with her kindness and love made him believe that he too deserves all the good things, she made me fall in love with her too. I just wish I could give that girl the tightest hug, but I was so happy Freddy gave it to her.😭 If I ever get the chance to live in this book, the first thing I would do is find Tyler—punch him in the face, make his nose bleed, kick his ass, and slowly make him die a painful death for what he did to Ro, for hurting her and degrading her. 😤

Overall, I would recommend this book a thousand times!! this book was so beautifully written with short chapters, that I had to double check if I was reading the book by the same author who wrote Unsteady (book 1 of this series), which I didn't like. But I'm glad to see the improvements Peyton made with this book.🤩

“If you're jumping, I'm jumping.�
“You are?�
“Why not? Unless you want to do it alone.�
“I hate being alone.�
“Great. Then I'm not leaving you alone, Ro.�

“I wish it was always easy.�
“What do you mean?�
“I think it's hard for people to like me. And I try really hard.�

“I think you'd be really easy to love.�

“Good to see you again, princess. I missed you.�

“I make a vow then to protect her, the pretty girl with butterflies in her messy curls, even if she'll never really be mine.�

“I think I'm in love with her—not even romantically, but on some soul level. I feel devoted to her.�

“If you wanna kiss someone, I'm right here.�

“I think you are one of the best people I've ever known. And I think it would be almost too easy to fall in love with you.�

“I think falling in love with you is the easiest thing I've ever done.�
