Dnf at 40%.
I really tried with this one. I thought maybe some internalised misogynistic bullshit was the reason I was having trouble with the book. Blake isn't exactly a likeable character, but I don't think that's it. 
I feel like the world building was lacking and any history of the characters was rushed over. They were more like cardboard cut outs. Something for me was missing.

I enjoyed this book a lot. 
The characters dragged me in and had me absolutely riveted as I followed their story. 
Its slow burn, grumpy/sunshine and I was so invested I was up until 2am finishing.

This is my second reading and I still love Adam and Noah so much. They will always be my fave of the series.

This book mentions some really messed up stuff that has happened to both of the main characters so please check TWs. 

It is a phenomenal "maybe" love story and it shows how trauma can colour all relationships going forward and affect how you see yourself and what you think you deserve.

I finished this a while ago and promptly forgot about it. It wasn't bad, but really nothing that brought it to life and made it memorable. I feel like at the times the author could have dug in and explored parts of the characters and their actions, things were skipped over.
