3.75
GOSH I AM SUCH A FAN. This is definitely a 3.75 star. Jasper and Sloane honestly are nothing but each others person. I am such a sucker for childhood friends to lovers, and this was exactly what I wanted from this book. The book starts with Sloane marrying sterling, this rich asshole, and Jasper who's attending such wedding, and let's just say it goes wrong and Jasper is there to save her. I really liked this one because I feel like I actually got to know the characters, and their past together. There was so many intimate vulnerable moments and I just feel like they understand each other so so well. This was such a fun one!! Let's just say I am DOWN BAD for Jasper. He said crawl and I will crawl 🙌🏻 One thing is I wish we got a little more of when beau went missing there was like nothing after he came back, and no explanation of any of that, but that might be saved for his book so im not sure. Also I am loving the snipers of texts between the characters! They're all so funny. I am so excited to continue with this series.
Favorite Quotes
“Times have changed, Sloane. I’m not scared anymore. You’re not my fucking friend. You’re just mine.”
“See, Sloane? You can wear someone else’s ring, but we both know you’ve always been mine.”
“Jasper: I don’t like talking to people. Sloane: You talk to me. Jasper: You’re not people. Sloane: Lmao. What am I then? Jasper: My person.”
“Does that mean you’re going home? To Sterling?” His voice is thick and he sounds resigned. I press my lips together and force myself to stare out the windshield. “No, Jasper. It means I’m coming with you.”
