A solid 3 star read for me because honestly Jim annoyed me, he just didn't stand up for anything he wanted and at the start of the book i thought he was gonna be the strong character.

The book was enjoyable Christmas read but I just didn't completely connect with either main character.

I also couldn't quite grasp the timeframe the story was set over . ( )

I thought the premise was interesting, but I had trouble really reconciling the fact that they were supposed to be best friends while have zero communication or discussion about anything important. This was a second chance romance, but I didn’t understand how they didn’t continue their first time. We also jumped 10 years in the future with MCs that seemed so out of character from those at the beginning of the book. Overall, I liked Ryan, but Jim annoyed me for most of the book. I’m glad they got their HEA, but I hope they learn to communicate better in their future.
