I received this book from free from the author in exchange for my honest review.
When I first started this book, it came across as a lot of drama. The petty kind, which is not to my taste. The more I read, the more I realized that this book is based on the very common relationship issue called “lack of communication”.
Josephine and Angel went from being besties to enemies after one fateful night in high school. This night sparked 10 years of non-communication between them and a world of misunderstandings that caused a couple broken hearts. When Josephine takes a job as the assistant wardrobe assistant for a band, she is shocked to see that she recognizes the bass player - Angel. From here it’s a rollercoaster of emotions.
The story includes flashbacks so we know what happened from the point of view of both Josephine and Angel. We see the raw emotion of everyone involved. It’s a great story with plenty of steam.
I also love that there is an anti-bullying campaign built into this book. As someone who has been bullied, it is near and dear to my heart. This book brings attention to the problem and it’s perfection.
Overall 4 stars - only because the beginning had me eye rolling over the drama. That’s not my thing.
