3.25 Thanks to letstalkbookspromo for the gifted book.

Wow, this book is like a train wreck that you can't look away from! But I did enjoy it.

Molly and Gabe have been dating for 2 years. When Gabe has something to tell Molly, she knows it's a marriage proposal. When he tells her he finished his book and it's being published instead, she's a bit disappointed. When she finds out it's basically a love letter of a book to his ex Talia, she starts to get paranoid and jealous.

I wanted her to dump Gabe like right away after finding out about the book! Gabe, in my opinion, wrote just a horrible, eye rolling and cringey book.... Even if it hadn't been inspired by his ex! Not a book I'd read.
I was hoping that things would go south between these two and I wasn't disappointed in what happens at the end....I was relieved. I just love a strong, independent woman and I wish it had happened sooner (and probably even more strong and better) for Molly.
