this book is FIRE no pun intended; not only was the romance believable, the drama with her firefighter job was IMMACULATE; there was literally no dry parts in the whole story and when I started a bish did NOT stop until the end; her character was definitely mega badass but I don’t think it was unrealistic? just the right amount; honestly this story would’ve worked with or without the romance

ok In my heart this is a 4.9/5 but do I just round up? I take 5 star ratings very seriously; alright the writing was subpar but the plot really reeled me in I need to think about this

UGHHH ok im just gonna say that if I had a more accurate rating system this would be a 5 but since I reserve it for my favorites I’m so conflicted; did I like this more than all the bright places? I don’t even remember .. definitely the best romance I’ve read this year though; I always thought I had to just KNOW in my <3 if it was a 5 but I don’t KNOW

I didn’t realize how much more enjoyable a romance could be when there’s a legit engaging plot behind all the LovE; I usually don’t notice themes very often but the forgiveness really hit different; I teared up 2-3 times and laughed out loud, what more could I ask for :)) I feel like objectively it wasn’t the most amazing book but it really had me engaged ... gotta ponder on the rating for a bit idk
