This book hooks you from the first page. The tropes do not do this book justice. It is phenomenal. These MCs, Sam and Ash are at sort of pivotal points in their own personal journey- Sam is grappling with coming to terms with hi sexuality having just been broken up with and is sort of trying to find his place in the world. Ash is surviving!! On the run literally with a slew of trouble and mess left in his wake. They collide at what would on paper be the worst time to find your someone. And yet…. Love find them, shakes them up and binds them together over a journey of days

Man I cannot believe the encompasses only a week or so maybe a little bit more I lost count but it’s packed with the adventure of a lifetime. Lives left behind, lives sought out, a happy ending that’s very very hard fought.

Risa Cruise takes us on the journey, pulls us along with these amazing characters- you make them selves comfortable in your heart - both such good guys who deserve all the happiness- they don’t make it easy for them though. A couple of times my eyes filled up and I was like noooo that can’t be happening why can’t we let them have this Risa Cruise. Well they eventually did give them a very very satisfying HEA so all is forgiven

Expect:

• the 90’s in all it’s glory
• Road trip
• Sam’s family is lovely you want to meet them
• Ash’s found family
• Disability rep (epilepsy )
• Sex worker
• Hurt comfort
• First times
• Sexual discovery
• Like I said … way more than the sum of it’s trope

its a fantastic story, it made me laugh, cry, swoon so hard, fan myself cause these guys have CHEMISTRY and left a smile on my face- Sam and Ash will stick with me for a long while.
