I needed book 2! I need to know what happens! ✓Friends to lovers ✓Second chance romance ✓Photographer-model ✓High school sweethearts ✓All the feels I absolutely love how there's no animosity or 'I'll give you shit & be angry for what you did in the past". Cora has learned, accepted & is growing in her life without Gavin, even though she still feels for him. There isn't anything grand happening in this book but it's still attention grabbing. Being book 1 in the duet, it was more focusing on how they are in their professional & relationship standing. They're old friends spending time & getting to know each other again, almost like initial dating stages. Cora & Gavin are like real goals since they were 15 years old. The true feeling is still there along with the hurt but the exact reason for why they lost touch is yet to be known. I'm warning you, do not imagine the scene happening when the story begins. It's gross! I don't think there's a single thing to hate in the story, Everything is simple & cute. There's a connection which is rekindling. The first day at highschool memory is absolutely sweeet.♡ I enjoyed the little glimpses of the past. I love clichés so when Gavin told the number of days they've been apart, my heart melted😩 PS: Gavin is a guy you'll fall in love with.
