I enjoyed this book, for the first 30% I thought I’d bought the wrong one, but then it clicked, and I just loved it, I love the tension and the questioning. I also loved the will she won’t she part, would definitely recommend

Okay. Can’t lie, the first half of the book is repetitive, a little slow, and the time span jumps are rough. I had to push myself to get through it. HOWEVER, it is TTOOOTTAAALLLLYYYY worth the push. The second half had me completely enraptured and up until 230am to finish it. Overall a good book with an interesting plot!

Overall it’s a good story, but the writing isn’t the best. It’s quite repetitive, which makes it difficult to read in places but worth a read.

This is so hard to read, the age gap was so unnecessary and felt so icky the chapters end so awkwardly I've never been so aware a chapter is ending. They'll be having a full conversation and it's suddenly done. I hate reading about jealous women in books it makes me stomach churn bc why tf was she doing the most for him when her ass is the one with amnesia. I'll never support a women chasing a man but maybe that's a personal preference. Also his ass was sleeping with other women while looking for her. It reminds me of those husbands in tt that name their kids after their ex's. But yeah shes fucking pathetic I can't stand her, he's irritating and this book is so much longer than it needs to be and it's not that long it's just hard to read. Also the time jumps in the beginning were so weird.
