It pains me to say this is the first book I’ve read by Adriana Herrera that I didn’t really like. There’s nothing explicitly wrong with it but me and Here to Stay never really clicked. It has a pretty slow start and then it seems like everything of importance happens in the last third of the book like a rush to the finish rather than more balanced. Prior to that, the focus is more on their friends, family, and jobs than their relationship.

It’s hard then not to compare it to the Dreamers series, which I liked infinity better. In the series, the characters and plots are more interesting and engaging for my reading preferences.

Thank you Carina Press and NetGalley for the ARC!

There’s something about Adriana Herrera’s writing that feels very fresh and it feels like her writing will truly be the future of contemporary romances. Julia and Rocco’s chemistry is sizzling from the moment they have their first talk in the book you just feel the attraction they have for each other jumping off the page (or in this case my iPad ). I adored this story and the characters and am eager to see where this series will go next!

An incredible beginning to a new series! The story is so good, Julia and Rocco are a couple you’ll want to root for from the start, the twins are adorable. Basically, it’s just an awesome book!

I kind of want back and forth between 3 or 4 stars?! The story line was interesting, it was definitely 🔥🔥🔥, there was some heartbreak and heartache but not to much suspense or action which is fine it's just that kind of book! It's definitely worth reading I did enjoy reading it, it's just an calm good book! Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!
