Arc review -

To say this was Rae's first book... you wouldn't know.
The way her writing flows, her characters have depth, the plot and storyline had me hooked from the start.
I've been in a bit of a slump the last couple weeks after a great start to September and this was exactly what I needed to pull me out of it.

I love a brothers best friend trope and when that brothers best friend is a tall, handsome billionaire who gets all possessive? SIGN. ME. UP 🥵👏
The chemistry between Nico and Kate has always been there and thanks to her crush she was no stranger to noticing how attractive he was but when they meet again, and find out that they'll now be working together... whew you could cut that tension with a butter knife.
Their banter, the way she kept trying to convince herself she didn't want him and tried her hardest to not just throw herself at him at every given opportunity had me giggling and also being like COME ON!
Nico was not a man to shy away from her though, and made sure he was there for her when he needed her, that she knew what she was really worth to him.
There were some seriously swoony moments. I ate up every second of their will they-won't they connection... and when they finally did, it was like fire. 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Their chemistry and connection was undeniable and
HOT AF🔥
I also thought the way Kate carried herself throughout was definitely worth an honourable mention, she has the absolute patience of a saint and was so freaking strong. The way she loved her dad, and tried so hard to keep his memory alive. 🥲
There was also a few very welcome twists and turns throughout and I really enjoyed the way these were done.
Overall a really really great read, I will definitely be back for book 2.
Thank you thank you thank you! ♥️
