4.5⭐️ 2🌶

This is a very refreshing and wholesome story. ☺️ low spice but feel good. 🩷

I like the audiobook very much, both narrators are doing great job. (I personally don't like acting too much on audiobook, so these two are perfect voice for the main characters, very good choice!!💯)

If Kayla Grosse writes it then I will read it. This book has to be my absolute favorite of all of them. As a cardiac nurse and a late diagnosed woman with ADHD. The characters in this book really interested me. They were both so well written and I absolutely loved their stories. I could not put this book down. I read it all in one sitting because it was THAT good!

The audiobook was done by the amazing Grayson Owen’s and Victoria Connelly. They both did an amazing job at bringing these characters to life.

This book is sweet, funny and handles complex difficult topics all at the same time. The book also does a fantastic job at plus size and adhd representation as well as teaching and spreading awareness about Kawasaki disease and ICD implants which is something that i believe most readers will be unfamiliar with. As someone who is plus size with Adhd I felt like Kayla nailed the represenation for both very well. I enjoyed how Adam the character with ADHD reflected on how it has affected his overall development as a person and the ways it has made him better even as going as far as to see him as self as different superheros. I felt that was very empowering.
The author does a fantastic job juggling several difficult topics as well as still making the story fun and spicy. I did find that the FMCs wishy washyness about desicion making got frustrating as a reader.
The audiobook narration was also fantastic and made for a really good listen.
Thank you to NetGalley and Dreamscape Select this audiobook was very well done!

I have loved everything that Kayla Grosse has put out, and this one was no different! I absolutely fell in LOVE with Jesse and Asher and their story! Kayla has such a gift for writing stories that just absolutely pull at all of your heartstrings, and this may be the best one yet!

The audio for this one is fantastic! Grayson Owens and Victoria Connolly are always a guaranteed 5 star in my eyes, and they delivered AGAIN for this one! I love when they are on audios together, and they are perfection as Asher and Jesse. I don't think anyone else could have portrayed them and their emotions any better!

Jesse is such a beautiful character. They way she is so positive (mostly) after all that she has endured and been through is admirable! She also has such a beautiful heart, and I just want to be besties with her! Even when she is unsure or struggling, she does her best to approach it in a way that isn't out of fear (mostly!). She goes through so much growth throughout this book, has a few revelations, and I adore her journey!

Asher is just top tier! He and GusGus are precious, and I love me a down bad man (you should know by now) and the fact he KNEW from night 1 that Jesse was his person, SWOON! Also, I loved that he never pressured her to be more than she could handle, but was always right there with her to support her!

In case ya can't tell, GET THIS ONE onto your TBR, like, yesterday!

The narrators did a fabulous job bringing the story to life! I absolutely loved this book! It's a heartfelt story that had me laughing, swooning, and even tearing up at times. I absolutely fell in love with Jesse and Asher. They are both incredible characters that have some amazing banter. And a slow burn romance that's definitely worth the wait! I enjoyed following along with their road trip/bucket list journey. And I'm happy to see so much representation in this book. It was all done very well. If you're looking for a book that will hit you in the feels in the best way possible, this is for you. I highly recommend it!

Thank you to NetGalley and Dreamscape Select for allowing me to listen to this audiobook ahead of release in exchange for my honest opinion.

Kayla Grosse books get better and better! This book is everything I didn’t know I needed truly a masterpiece! The connection and the pull the two main characters feel for each other since the very beginning had me smiling so hard my face hurt. I loved that he fell first!! Asher was all in immediately! His unwavering support and love for Jesse was awe inspiring and so beautiful it made my heart hurt in the best way possible. I honestly don’t know how she protected her heart from him because from the beginning I’m like here take it, you can have it!! Loved Jesse and Asher so happy I got to read this book early! Huge thank you to Kayla Grosse!!
