Kristy Boyce is such a comfort author for me now. I absolutely love her take on YA. I love the inner nerd/child of her main characters. I love her inclusivity of all her characters. This was such a fun read.

"I like my men the way I like my tea. Hot and British"

"It's not dumb if you love it."

It was fine - would make for a cute hallmark movie. There was nothing wrong with it, I just couldnt get into the story or the characters. 

This series was 2 books too long. This book itself was 300 pages too long. I really feel like it should have been left at the first book and that's it. This series reminds me of the After series and I dnf'd that series.... I should have dnf'd this series too. I did enjoy the plot/climax that happened at the end but everything else in the middle was just such repetitive unnecessary drama.... it was too much.

Saved the best for last in my Lovelight journey. I loved this love story so much! It was so cute. It was such a sweet story that I didn't expect the level of spice it had but it just made it all the better.

“Why are you giving these guys your time? Why are you settling for crumbs when you deserve the whole damn cake?” 

"You wear orange," he says again. "On Tuesdays. Sometimes it's just a scarf in your hair, other ties it's your dress or these little ornage shorts that I swear took to to seven years off my life." He blows out a deep, gusting breath and scrubs his hand against the back of his head. "And you drink chamomile tea in the afternoons. You get a line right here," he says, dragging the tip of his finger at the corner of my mouth. "When you're excited and trying to hide it."

Fun read. I really enjoyed the side relationships - Rhode and his teammates and Nina and her sister. I appreciated the mental health rep and thought it was well represented.

Anxiety might suck me into the whirlpool of my life, but I always come up for air.

“You want to make a pillow fort with me?”
“I’d build you a pillow castle.”

I don’t want to have to be strong—I just want to be strong.

A lot of my favorite tropes in this one made for a cozy sweet story with King & Saylor!

This book was everything! I loved the tension and banter. Gracie totally held her own and was such a strong willed FMC! Gabriel had me cackling and swooning multiple times throughout and also...🥵. Really enjoyed this one. I should have highlighted more. About to dive into everything TL Swan writes now.

You never regret the things that you do, only the things that you didn’t.

“Your children want ice cream for dinner.” I feel him smile into my hair. “Me too.”

I'm in this. And a love triangle? Yesssss. I'm ready.

I think they should have just left the first book as the only book cause this seemed like a hot mess dumpster fire. I was getting After series vibes with the toxicity and craze between Noah & Nick and idk if I can handle it anymore. Extra star for the extra drama lol.
