Good but a little disappointing. It was like the author was skipping over so much so that she could get the timeline she wanted. There were so many times that I wanted the story to flow better. I liked the characters quite a bit but sometimes it felt like their actions didn't make any sense. I would be really interested in reading a story about Mason's mother but I think that is the only storyline I would absolutely want to read. Overall, sweet story but a little disjointed.

3.5/5 ⭐️ 2.5/5

Hannah what are you doing to me! We saw some bits of Anna and Mason in the last book and now to see the whole story come together was fantastic.

Anna has a slightly toxic relationship with her parents that really controls a lot of the story. Anna actually started off in a relationship with Mason's brother. That didn't end well. Now they are thrown together because of their friends relationship and things start to progress between them. Their friendship/relationship takes place over the course of their senior year when things really start to get hot between them. But Mason backs away and doesn't talk to Anna. Now when Anna needs him most, she can't get a hold of him.

Mason and Anna boy were they interesting. They met surprisingly when she was dating his half brother who he didn’t have a good relationship with. He was intrigued by the brunette beauty and she was also intrigued by him. Mason made her feel things that she wasn’t feeling with his brother. What Mason didn’t know was that looking from the outside in their relationship isn’t what everyone think it is. Fast forward some months and Anna and Mason basically become best friends after she breaks up with his brother. They have a lot in common and their banter was off the chain hilarious but they never crossed that line because they cherished and valued their friendship. But then things got blurry and one thing led to another and feelings were no longer able to be hidden. When things looked like they were finally going to to go well half brother messes everything up. It’s a whirlwind of events and a huge surprise when Mason and Anna meet again and she was different and not giving him the time of day. He worked hard to earn her trust again and she wasn’t making things easy for him. They had a back and forth until months later when she finally caved. Family secrets were revealed and they had each other’s backs when the other needed someone. It was a great read and the secondary characters added to the dynamics.
