A beautiful love story between soulmates. The tenderness, the quiet love, the longing... These two were made for each other. I loved every second of it

📌Reread, April 2025: updated my rating from 4.5 to 5⭐ This book hasn't left me since I first read it 5 months ago. Having finished rereading it just now, I can safely say it's become one of my favorite romances ever. The pinning between those two is top notch, their love is comforting, warm and so so sweet. And the best way I can describe the reading experience, is that it's like lying outside on a blanket during a summer night, watching the stars with a loved one by my side.

After loving this author's debut, To Ghosts & Gravity, I was waiting impatiently as soon as this one was announced. Let me just say, I'm not disappointed.

Emerson and Dillon already have a past when we meet them, and we learn throughout the chapters what happened back then while watching them interact in present time.

Emerson is a whole mood, I couldn't get enough of him. He's such a fun, witty and compelling character, you can't help but root for him. Dillon on the other side is a patient and more grounded character, but no less lovable. It's obvious why Emerson, or anyone, would fall for him. They are both flawed and layered characters, that compliment each other perfectly.

Their journey was not an easy one, it's emotional, painful at times, but I was also kicking my feet and melting from the sweetness.

I don't want to spoil anything because I loved going in (mostly) blind, so I'll stop there, but I can't wait to talk about it in the forum.

I guess now we'll have to wait for the next Bennet brother to fall in love 🤞 <3

I was provided an ARC from the author but this is my honest review

Call the FDA or whatever health organization because these guys broke so many food safety rules
