Charlotte is the sweet nerdy good-girl who stays home and takes care of her mother who has cancer. Hunter hates going home to his abusive, alcoholic mother. He doesn't deserve to keep Charlotte, but can't imagine life without her. So they're friends, but he manages to fuck even that up.
I love the friends to lovers trope and this one is a second chance at that. This book starts in the past before moving to the present then future. It goes into detail about their entire past and I loved it.
Hunter is so sweet even though he is portrayed as a bad-boy player. I mean he kind of is, but he's adorable. Although an idiot. Everything between them could have been resolved if he'd handled things better.
Trigger warnings: child death mentioned in backstory - does not go into detail. Cancer. Parental death.
This book took me forever to get through. I enjoyed it, don't get me wrong, but the first like 300 pages is all build-up and friendship. Nothing is even remotely spicy. There are some sex scenes in this big book, but nothing explicit. Normally, I enjoy a big book and 500+ pages isn't even the most I have read this year, but it was so back-story heavy that it felt longer. That being said, once the book finally caught up to the present it was nice knowing all the minutia of their history.
