Thank you so much for Forever and Netgalley for providing an advanced copy of this! All thoughts and opinions are still my own.

I was extremely excited going into this book - the cover, the synopsis, everything sounded like this was a going to be a perfect hit.

Unfortunately this is the epitome of a perfectly fine romance.

There were parts I really loved, parts I didn't so much enjoy. And in the end I'm left feeling very little about it in any way.

I think this was a fun twist on a love triangle, explored complex relationships, and definitely had a satisfying ending (iykyk). But the amount of unnecessary secrets, lies, and self-sabotaging behavior was also quite frustrating.

So I'm left in the middle not feeling strongly about the story in any way. But since this is a debut, I am interested in picking up this author's next book.
