Ratings and reviews
My goodness, what a roller coaster. Great character development, loved the trope and the characters.
Loved the enemies-to-lovers vibes and the adorable rom-com references. While a few chapters felt a bit long, this was a truly comforting and special read for me. It will forever hold a place in my heart as the first book I managed to read since losing my mum a few months ago. Thankyou Lynn I was worried I’d lost my love for reading. 4.5 stars!🌟
