Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
The first 30% kind of dragged and was very repetitive but when it started finding itself it was hard to put down.
Charlie and Mack have great chemistry and you want them to be together and be happy!
They’re both kind of a mess which is really comforting.
Mack’s parents are so wonderful and supportive!
I really didn’t like Charlie’s friend Ben. I can’t put my finger on why, but he just bothered me for some reason.
Overall, this was a beautiful book and I really did love Charlie and Mack.
