The romance in the story was an enemies to friends to lovers and I loved this slow burn! While there might have been some repressed romantic feelings, the romance did not even start until about 75% finished with the book. Instead of instalove, we got to meet the characters and get to know them individually as people and I loved both Angie and Ten separately and together and wanted to stand up and cheer when they finally admitted feelings.
The romance (while I loved it!) was not primarily the focus of the story. Instead, it was about Angie leaning about herself, including her talents and hopes. It was also about Angie and her mother's relationship growth, as well as Angie and her friends and the adorable sisterly relationship between Angie and Nev. This was very much a character driven novel, with so many well rounded side characters, I feel like these are my people and I love them all.
I have read basically everything from this author, be it werewolf, fae and angel but this was my first contemporary romance from her as well as my first YA by her. I can now say that she can write anything, be it high stakes fantasy with action or this super sweet, swoony feel good read that I never wanted to end. I never wanted to put the book down and ended up reading it in a few days because I was so wrapped up in the story and the plot was perfect paced to get lost in. It is confirmed that I am an official fan girl and I need to force this book on everyone who loves strong spunky girls who know what they want from life, a cute boy who grew up too quick but would do anything for his sister, all things music (especially country), and great relationship dynamics from all directions.
