Anyta Sunday gives her readers a very lovely story that a lot of people are bound to love. There's plenty of tension for it to count as a slow-burn romance, although it's not quite the level Mariana Zapata aka queen of slow-burn fans would expect and I believe it has a lot to do with the length of the story. The current length is actually pretty good and if Sunday had written more, it may have dragged on a bit BUT the slow-burn fan in me would've liked even more tension for a while longer.

I am not usually one of those readers who adores second chance romance stories because most of the time I simply do not believe in them due to the misunderstandings and stuff the couple had to face the first time round. And I guess that's also one of the problems I had with this book despite the fact that it's more of a second chance friendship story and that I really enjoyed it. No, it wasn't a misunderstanding that caused them to fall out in the first place but it was the lack of wanting to talk things through with your best friend that kind of didn't work for me. Just a personal preference...

But what I did enjoy a great deal about this novel, was our hero Marco. His insecurities made a lot of sense to me and I liked him a great deal... I also quite liked Oskar and how he wanted to make things right with Marco after all these years. (I didn't appreciate his short relationship with Jessie, though, because love triangles are not my thing.) I really liked Marco's and Oskar's interactions after they made up, but I especially loved those text messages because those showed the friendship part the most (for me at least).

Also, Oskar's younger sister Zoe - I loved her! I would definitely like to find out more about her. Maybe even a book all about her...

PS! If the book's set in Germany (Berlin to be precise), shouldn't it make more sense to use EU shoe sizes and meters instead of feet as measurements?
