Yayyyyy we've reached the epilogue and it's soo cute so far!! Guyss I'm genuinely telling you Paige and Grayson need a book next because they literally scream friends to lovers 😫 and I just need to know their story.
Reed and Violet are actually so cute and they remind me soo much of Hannah & Garrett and I love that 😍 stoppp I'm officially obsessed with them and this series. And the Darlings ofc.

Reed doing a figure skating routine in the middle of his hockey finals is making me cringe so hard 😅🥲😬 it reminds me of Alex singing from Twisted Love.. and that was an experience.
I am so weirded out right now and I dont know how to feel... but I still love the book heheh.

I actually HATE Jeremy sooo much with my whole heart, it's not even funny 🙄 like bro needs to get a life and maybe go to a therapist. Reed if you beat his ass up I will 100% support you because count me in ✊️
Violet please come and get your man because he needs you ASAP.

Period. I know that's right. Finallyyyy Paige decided to tell the true story about Natalie & Jeremy to Violet and boy am I glad. Look all I have to say is Violet go and get your man girl because he needs you and you need him 🤭😜
If they don't get back together I will cry though. Because I really liked reading this book.

WHAT. THE. HECK
HOLYYY major crash out of the century 😡😡 😭 you're telling me that Violet wants to end their fake dating arrangement solely because she got manipulated by Jeremy about Reed and his past with Jeremy. GIRL BYE 🙄 why just why?!?
I actually have so much rage and anger towards Jeremy, it's not even funny. Violet WAKE UP girl and come to your senses!!

So like I just jinxed it... great. Violet girl I love you but come on there is no way you'll believe your ex over Reed, the man who is an actual green forest right and is down bad for you right?
Ughhh Jeremy is going to ruin everything I just know it. And just when I said there was going to be no third act breakup 😭 help.

'There's only one girl I care about and she's standing right in front of me'
Ahahaha stop Reed Darling you have my heart forever 🥰 also not him also doing figure skating while also being a hockey player, that's so funny lol.
So far there has been no third act breakup yet but watch me jinx it...

Ahahahah I love them soo much!! I'm obsessed with their banter, tension and chemistry 😮💨 it's soo good!! I love how the fake dating trope lasts more than the first 50% because it makes for such a good slowburn as well. Also Reed & Violet are so One Direction coded, prove me wrong.
P.S. I'm telling you Paige & Gray need a book because it's so obvious that they're more than just best friends...

Ohhh I hate Jeremy even more. Not only were him & Reed best friends but he had the audacity to steal his girlfriend in freshman yearwhen he knew Reed was in love with her?!? Ughh get Jeremy out of here. He actually gives me Jeremiah Fisher vibes, it's not even funny 🙄 also Mia and Reed is a duo I never expected but hey I'm here for it.

Violet meeting Reed's family and them immediately warming up to her is so wholesome and I love me a good found family trope. Also the mum reading her novel while all her children talk is soo me core, I love her so much 😂 and Violet deserve the best from Reed 🥺 eee I love her so much as well.
Cammie & Paige are bound to be the sisters Vi never had and I love that for them.

Also Reed is such a green flag, I love him so much. He gives me a mix of Alec Barcweski from Fake Skating x Garrett Graham from The Deal in the best way possible. I also love how his POV isn't lusty and is more focused on his relationship with his family and hockey, I love that!!
Eating this book up so far and I will be reading the rest of the series, thank you very much,
