The Moth and the Flame by B.B. Reid
5.0

Honestly, could BB Reid be more addictive than this?
There are millions of authors out there, all with a gift of creating stories that will remain with you for a long time ,but for me since I discovered her books I said I can't find someone more addictive, her words just drawn you in the story without even realizing and you just can't stop reading till the last page and even then you want more and more.
The word created is so real and all the feelings and turns and twists that Lou and wren felt along this story were like ours, as one of our friends.

””“You have problems with trust, don’t you?” “Everyone does. Some have trouble giving it, and some have trouble keeping it. We all learn that the hard way.””

Yes, there are moments when you may say, no that doesn't happen in real life but guess what, it does and it's more terrifying than we can imagine.
It's a beautiful love story between teenagers that became friends in one moment of an unfortunate situation and we get onto an adventure full of love, angst, heartbreaking, denial, lust and everything in between for two souls that are finding their way in life.

””Lou was my onus. My light. The very last tether to my soul. I couldn’t risk losing her. It was out of the question. She meant so much more to me than a hot, dirty fuck. I needed her, more than she needed me.””

””He could have been my white knight, but his armor didn’t shine. It was shrouded in darkness, and it was only a matter of time before it swallowed him whole.””

A best friends to lovers, slow burn love that is much more than you can expect and you will have your heart beating so hard for some memorable laugh out loud moments, heartbreaking and denial of their true feelings, to the satisfying ending.
Read it and you won't be disappointed.
