James has been in love with Jess since they were teenagers but he’s never had the guts to tell her. He has has just moved back to LA and her boyfriend has just dumped her leaving them in the same city and both single for the first time in 8 years. Will he finally make a move and show her how much he loves her? 

 

This is a stunning debut novel. It took a minute for me to get into it at first but it really found its groove in the first few chapters. James is so in love with Jess and it just made me so happy to see. He was truly in pain every time she talked about another man and that’s how I like to see my men. 

 

Jess slowly discovering that she has feelings for James was so funny because he caught her by such surprise. Every time he touched her and she was left wondering if she was supposed to be feeling that way about her best friend. 

 

Jess also has generalized anxiety and that plays a huge factor in their love story. She is very scared of change and she is so worried that if she takes the next step with James it will ruin their friendship forever. She just has to learn to trust the love that they have for each other. 

 

I loved that the ending was her learning to take care of herself and really work on her mental health. I think it was great for her character and I loved to see it. 

 

I’m very excited for the net book about Liz and Parker. 

 

I received an arc through grey’s promotion.
