Truly incredible! I’ve had this book on my shelves for years and I’m honestly mad at myself for waiting this long to read it. This was sweet and sexy and the enemies to lovers vibes were fantastic. Mr Frost is the perfect book boyfriend and I truly adore him. I particularly love that this book didn’t have a third act breakup, and that when Gabby had her moment of panic, logic kicked in and she paused and checked herself to ensure she didn’t do something silly like assume the worst of Johnathan again. The autism rep is so perfect, as is always the case with Chloe’s books, particularly because they are #ownvoice stories. Gabby’s sensory issues and struggles with social interactions are extremely relatable and they made me, a person with Autism & ADHD feel seen. Overall this was great. My only complaint is I didn’t want it to end. I really wish it had been longer, but that’s a personal preference and if anything, a reflection of just how much I love Chloe’s books. I never ever want them to end.
