i think i will stop it here. There's too much stuff off page and the wrong things get page time. The 2nd half completely derailed this otherwise 5 star story. i'll probably rate this a 2.5 and end it there. i invested so much into tjese 2 men, it feels insanely unfair how their love story got undermined like that.

There's so much off page sex. For a couple that's constantly talking about sex, we're not privy to it. And the 2nd half of the book falls flat bcuz too much is just narrated over with a heap of time skips. i think if the book didn't waste time on Adrian (who's not even the mc here) they could use those pages on the couple spending more time on page. Maybe make it a bit spicy too? Cuz it ain't.

Stop it! Y'all are too cute! 😭 😭 Ethan on Tanner's knee scars:

Ethan crawled up Tanner’s chest till they were eye to eye and regarded him seriously. “It’s beautiful. It has all your history wrapped up in it, everything you won, suffered, and overcame, so I won’t have you saying shit like that, understood?”
Tanner bit back a smile. Mother-hen Ethan was all kinds of cute. “Understood.”

This is a book about grieving and bonding through it. Loving it so far.
