Ally and Jackson were truly made for each other. They’re complete opposites — Ally thrives on structure and planning, while Jackson is the ultimate “go-with-the-flow” guy. But somehow, their differences blend beautifully, and together they bring out the best in each other. On their own, they’re wonderful characters; but together, they’re absolutely perfect.
Their story ends with the simple yet powerful exchange:
“For now.”
“And forever.”
— a reminder that some love stories are meant to last. 💕

Good premise but

I am a huge Hannah Abbot fan and couldn’t wait to read this newest book. However from the beginning our heroine Ally struck me as a bitter, rigid shrew.I kept hoping for her to mellow out quicker, if at all. I can’t say that she ever did in my opinion. Some of Jackson’s actions and thoughts I understood, but for him becoming a parental figure at 10 to be as fly by night on many things I just didn’t get. An enjoyable read, just not one I would re read.

I truly enjoyed this story.

This story was well written with the main characters being total opposites. Their approach to live had been influenced by their life experiences and made it hard for them really know each other. Things happened that made things difficult but they finally put theirs lives in God"s hand who already has a plan. This was a great journey and I plan to read more by this author.

I discovered Hannah Jo Abbott when I read the Freedom Ridge series months ago. Then I got a free Novella from her called Just Friends. It’s a prequel to this series. I enjoyed it and so decided to jump into the series and I’m glad I did.

This was a sweet romance and a fun read. There’s some tension and some struggle but overall, you know it’s gonna work out. And faith plays a role in the story which I really like.

This was such a cute story! I appreciated that it was a clean romance, and that faith in God was woven into the storyline. Jackson and Ally were likable characters, and as opposites, they complemented one another very well, even though it took them awhile to see it for themselves. I really enjoyed the ending too, and I’m looking forward to reading the next book about Cole and Emily.

Opposites attract

I loved to read about the developing relationship between Ally and Jackson. Her Roommate’s Brother is a well told story with plenty of twists. I loved how rounded and realistic the characters were. If you like to read fun romances with great characters you should check this out.

Being in God’s plan is always better

My world is crashing and I am not sure what to do! I have tried everything that I could think of, I don’t want my family to know I’m failing. I am going to see my sister maybe I can get a job there. Hopefully

A great book..

The this a lot of lessons in life for us to Lear and it's a hard one and that is being honest. Well the couple sure learned the hard way in this story. I the end it might work out and you will learn.

Learning to trust

A light hearted romance that offers a chance to escape from reality for a short while but also teaches the valuable lesson that no matter how we try, God is better at planning our future than we are.

Ally and Jackson were realistic characters. They are opposites in personality types. She's all into schedules and order, while he's a go-with-the-flow type. Both are Christian, though.

Their story is realistic and entertaining. I enjoyed watching them grow through the story.

I really did like this book. It’s lighthearted and an easy read.
A good read. It looks like the ending sets Cole up for the next book.

Was ok

It was a ok storyline. Nothing much to rave about. Not that it’s bad just not outstanding. I enjoyed it but the ending sort of felt out of place.

[Mary Garbarino · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a wonderful story. You meet these characters and identify with them immediately. Relatable story of mishaps.

Never judge before you get to know someone, he may be God's chosen partner for you. I loved this book dearly. Binge-read all other 4 books in the series. Now waiting for the 5th one next year.

I enjoyed the story, oh so very much. Definitely recommend. I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

[Kimmie Kay · Rating 5 out of 5]

I always love when books are well written. This is one of those books. I listen to the audiobook on Youtube and it was so much fun to listen to. Obviously the title gives away what will happen.Still, I enjoyed listening to how they will end up together.
