I really enjoyed this friends-to-lovers story. Stan/Lee and Sage have been neighbors and best friends for two years. Both have been fighting an attraction to each other. When Lee proposes they embark on a fake relationship, he finally initiated his plan.
Me wanting to talk about my feelings is a sign of the apocalypse. Or the reality I'm falling in love with my best friend.
What I liked:
* I really liked Stan. He seemed like he had it pretty good. Great looking model, star of his rugby club, but what he wanted was so simple. Most of all, he was looking for someone who loved and cared for him.
* Stan and Sage together were a lot of fun. They had the banter and the camaraderie that I wish I could find. It was apparent they had a strong friendship, and their love and affection for each other was smile inducing. These two also had chemistry. The tension was high, but well worth it when they finally got the release.
* Sage's family was pretty awesome. I really enjoyed the time in Chicago, because I got to be part of the Blum family. Talk about family goals.
* I enjoyed the peeks of life in Aspen. Some of the descriptions really made me want to get out and explore the mountains with them.
There really wasn't a lot that I didn't like. Mostly, I wish it was a little longer. There were a few parts of the story I wish were more developed, but that could just be because I liked the idea so much, and wanted to know more, rather than it hurting the story.
Overall, fun romance with happy feels.
