Summary

For two years, Freya has hidden her love for her best friend, Rome. But he has never shown any sign of feeling the same...until now.

Yet, Rome has a damaged heart. After losing his fiancée, he hasn't allowed himself to fall in love again.

Freya has already had her heart broken by a man who couldn't let go of the past. Can she risk it happening again? Are they brave enough to take a chance?

Love this series

I needed a box of tissues for the final couple of chapters. The narrator is very good, the characters interesting and draw you into the story.

Lovely book superbly read

This is a very nice easy romance which is an enjoyable book to listen to. It was read superbly and the reader brought absolutely the best out of the book.

Oozes cheesy love

A bit over cheesy but I still really enjoyed. A bit annoying at times as there were too many silly misunderstandings but as I said I enjoyed it all the same

Annoying

The struggle was real with this book.

After 5 attempts to listen to the story I finally managed to get to the end of it. It was so disappointing, the plot was predictably, throughout the book it was slushy drivel, where nothing much happens.
Freya (I think that's her name) is Wet, annoying and needs a reality slap.

I feel like I was cheated out of a title for my 241

Gaah!

I have really enjoyed the authors previous books, but my enjoyment of this book was overshadowed by the incredible annoying, whining, stupidly insecure, self-destructive, self-centered main character, Freya. My ears are bleeding after listening through her many tedious internal monologues. The highlight of this book was definitely the loveable and awkward character Finn.
