thank you to william morrow, netgalley, and alex aster for this arc in exchange for an honest review.

this is my first book from this author and I loved it. the pacing in this book is great, along with the tension between elle and parker made it so hard to put this book down. I was really imagining being there in nyc and all the places they went to, felt like a movie was playing in my head. this book made me cry and get a little mad during certain scenes. but it also made me giggle, blush and kick my feet.

the characters were written beautifully. the fmc definitely had flaws, but that’s what made this book so much more relatable. the mmc had his own problems as well. he was trying so hard to make her happy, in the only way he knew how by buying things for her. I am glad though that he learned that money can’t fix everything or make someone happy.
