I WAITED MONTHS FOR THIS AND IT WAS SO WORTH IT!
A sweet and funny romance read, as cute and delightful as the cover.
Celine and Bradley used to be friends, until a disastrous falling out now has them as enemies, sniping and nitpicking at each other every chance they get. When the two find themselves in the same wilderness program competing for a scholarship, tensions and old feelings quickly rise.
This was such an enjoyable book, I loved how different yet similar Bradley and Celine were. The amount of angst was perfect, and the way their banter develops over the course was so sweet to read!
I really loved how smitten Bradley was, when Celine was confessing and his only thought was how this was 15 years ahead of schedule! (I was laughing out loud so much during this book!)
It isn't often in books (especially romance) that we see a mc struggle with mental health issues, this one being OCD. Talia Hibbert depicted his everyday struggle so well, he was just such a charming and complex character.
I highly recommend this read for anyone looking for a great diverse romance full of lovable characters!
The Cover
This is such a cute cover!
It is rare that I have zero complaints or critiques regarding the cover or composition, but this one blows expectations out of the water! I love everything from the characters and how their outfits showcase their interests and personalities, to the bubbly and flowing title font. Seriously y'all, this is an amazing cover!
