Idk how many times I gotta say it but a friends to lovers is always gonna have me in a chokehold 🤷🏾‍♀️.
Ok so Eris did annoy me at times. She kept going back knowing things wasn’t going to change. I also didn’t like how she would put Tru on the back burner when he would stop everything for her and I mean everything was on hold when it came to her. Idgaf if Long Shoe was her husband because he ain’t have the same respect for her that she had for him. I just don’t understand how you go this long with a person like him. But then I see why her character allowed and put up with so much. It’s cause she was able to maintain her expensive lifestyle. I started to warm up to her once Valentine’s Day hit lol. I definitely ain’t blame sis at all. Iykyk.
I loved and adored Truly. From his first introduction I was sold. The way he carried himself was so alluring. The way he was so loyal to Eris was so attractive. He was such a good friend. He valued Eris so much because of his background and she was there for him. I really did love their friendship. I respected Eris so much more when she went out her way to do the unthinkable for Tru. Sis got some brownie points for that 👏🏾. This was a short good read so it did move at a fast pace but it kept you interested. So happy for T & E 💕
I’m truly ( no pun intended ) a sucka for friends to lovers trope. I’m ngl this story had me immediately from the first page no joke. First time author for me and I’m gonna browse her catalog. I recommed this read especially if you love this trope as much as I do.
