***4 Stars***
This was a sweet, slow burn opposites attract enemies to friends to lovers romance that had some great moments and a lot of character growth for both Grace and Noah and filled with a bunch of great supporting characters that brought life and depth to the story.
I liked Noah and Grace. Both are at crossroads in their lives and are trying to figure out just what they want their futures to look like, well Noah is as he has become a fish out of water, while Grace has a plan and just needs to make sure everything gets done. Their journey is a slow one, filled with some interesting situations they find themselves in and the realization that, while they are opposites in many ways, they are actually perfect for each other.
This is my first read by the author and I enjoyed it. The writing was engaging, though the pace did sometimes drag for me, it was a fun read filled with fun characters. I loved Morty, Rosie and Josh. Rob was awesome and Chris, Everly and Wes were fun to get to know and see how they helped both Noah and Grace along on their journey.
