I know there’s a sequel but something about the ending felt so unfinished.

Loved it, read it in one sitting and was completely enticed by it. I loved all the POV for each character and loved Ethan. An amazingly short read.

There was no foundation for the characters. They come off very shallow immediately.

Tyler and Rose are best friends and she has always wanted more but he sleeps his way through women and always ends up cheating so she is just waiting until he can commit to her. When Rose’s boyfriend breaks up with her, she moves in with Tyler but his girlfriend Georgiana is not happy about it because she suspects there was always attraction between the two and is threatened by their friendship. She also believes that Tyler has always had a thing for Rose and spoiler alert– he has!

When these two friends finally give in to each other, it's amazing but second thoughts and doubts start creeping in. He’s still with Georgiana and he has cheated again so Rose doesn't know if he has changed at all.

At Georgia's birthday party, she meets his brother Ethan and they kinda hit it off. From there the love triangle evolves into a love square and you get to see how these flawed people all learn to deal with real life and learn it's not always a HEA.

Four points of view was an interesting choice for this book! I didn't expect to hear from Georgiana and Ethan and while I thought it was weird at first I did like it. Georgiana’s view point softened her character even though she still had slimy ways to keep those two apart and get Tyler for herself. I didn't agree with her methods but it was an interesting POV you don't usually hear from.

The book moved very quickly. Not a lot of anticipation tingles and character growth and those coupled up jumped right into situations without much lead up.

It was a quick read but not my usual cuppa coffee. I hate to say that I did like the ending as weird as it sounds. I know it wasn't a typical ending for a romance book but I think everyone got what they deserved.

Average read. There's a love quadrangle going on. Two of the protagonists have been best friends since they were young, but they both started having feelings for each other and that complicated things since one of them is already in a relationship. Also FYI there wasn't any steamy scenes which was disappointing.

I downloaded this off my kindle app as a free ebook, and I had very low expectations so I feel quite average about this. It was nothing exceptional in either plot, writing, or characters, but it wasn’t terrible in any way. It was a quick read to pick up lightly, but I found the pacing to be terrible. I will likely read the second book when I feel I read a quick read, but hope there is significant character development and stronger tones in the different voices.

Love triangles aren’t my thing, and reviews seemed mixed over whether or not it’s actually a true HEA.
