This book gave me everything I’m looking for in a good rivals to lovers. 
1. Great character history between them
2. A reason to be rivals that actually makes sense 
3. Two distinct characters that are both equally complex 

This sapphic romance was an emotional ride and I loved it! It starts out a little slow but pays off. Sage and Noah’s petty banter in forced proximity was great. They both had equally complex but completely different family backgrounds that added a lot to the story. 

This book touched on mental health issues, dysfunctional families, chronic pain/physical disability and more.
