Collide by Amanda Shelley
4.0

Collide is a SLOW SLOW SLOW burn romance that is super sweet.

Alex and Gavin met through mutual friends; they formed their own friendship. I loved seeing their interactions and watching them grow throughout the story. The progression of their relationship was super sweet. Alex is stubborn, but she isn’t the type of girl you’d expect for her age and being away at college. Gavin is a swoony gentleman. Seriously, the man cooks AND cleans. How can you not want that?!

I already said this is a slow burn and but once they finally give into each other and their feelings everything quickly progresses for them and their relationship. They were truly each other’s first love and it was beautiful to read.

The secondary characters in this story were enjoyable, too. I loved Alex and Gavin’s group of friends, plus both their families.

Collide is a slow burn, first love, sweet college romance. If you’re looking for a book that isn’t full steam and is on the lighter side of romance this is one to check out.
