3.0

Nobody Loves Me Like You Do by Tacarra is a fast-paced character driven forced proximity strangers to lovers urban romance. While I felt that the book started off pretty slow, all in all I think the pacing was decent and, while I'm able to suspend reality for the sake of the story, I have to admit that the story of Eve and Saint unfolded in a mostly believable way. While I found the story entertaining, there was very little character development and I didn't find the main characters Eve and Saint that likable. Saint had a pretty nasty attitude and Eve came across as judgmental, which was weird because she was in a longterm relationship with a cheating man who wasn't committed to her. 

I wish Tacarra told us more about Kona, her background, and her relationship with Saint. I think this background would explain why the two were at odds and also would've been good character development for Saint, who is a pretty grumpy, angry character. 

I also think more insight into Eve's relationship with Adrian would've benefited the story, too. The main characters don't even meet until about 30% in the book. All the chapters before the Friendsgiving, a crucial point in this story, could've been dedicated to character development. 

To me, Nobody Loves Me Like You Do by Tacarra is a decent story and I recommend it to fans of urban romance who prefer drama, problematic characters and a HEA.
