Pretty good! Likable and flawed main characters, not an LOL rom-com but there were flashes of wit and humor. I loved that counseling played a large part in their relationship growth (even though they went for a work-related, non-romantic reason), very refreshing. Open-door.

I breezed through this book. It was easy and sexy, emotional and funny, but also reflective and heartbreaking. I could relate to Lilah's character and the difficulty she had with opening herself up to love.

Will They or Won't They lived up to its name, taking Lilah and Shane from enemies to lovers to enemies to friends to lovers to enemies to everything in between. It portrayed so accurately the difficulty that so many people face in being able to open themselves up and trust other people. This story was a rollercoaster of emotions. Yes, it was frustrating to read at times because we didn't know if we were coming and going but that is what made it so real.

I enjoyed the characters and the development of the story. However, I didn't love the frequent flashbacks, especially since I felt like they were out of nowhere and kind of just stuck in a random place in the book. Overall, I'd recommend for a slow-burn second-chance romance.

I thought the title was a little boring but holy shit, this story was truly a “will they or won’t they” until the very last pages. What a ride!
