Loved the Ending!
There were so many times I laughed out loud reading this book! I love humor in romance novels. I loved how Trevor and Lexi were best friends and knew each other so well, all except for how much they loved one another. Their relationships with family and friends were heartwarming also. This is a funny, feel-good book.

Cute
This was cutish, and the narration was okay. It was a good change for something sweet and clean. I liked both the characters and their friendship.

Adorable friends to more
Read if you love:💫best friends to more💫childhood friends💫online dating mishaps💫missed opportunities💫slooooooow burn💫supportive friends and family💫swoon worthy kissesOh, sweet agony! Trevor and Lexi — I don’t think I’ve ever said “oh, come on, guys!” so much while reading a book! 😂 These two just did not want to get on the same page with each other and it made for the sweetest, most agonizing slow burn.It was really enjoyable finally getting know these two as I’ve met them in Battleshipped and Townshipped. I loved their unique friendship — how they grew up together as neighbors and how now they’re neighbors once again as well as coworkers. I also liked the series of mishaps that continued to put these two in the friend zone. I seriously thought they were never going to get together. Between Trevor’s ex girlfriend showing up and Lexi’s online dating fails, it seemed like every obstacle was in their way. Thank goodness for friends — ahem, Laura.My favorite moments throughout the book were when it was just Trevor and Lexi doing the things they’ve always done together, like stargazing. You could really see how perfect they were together during those moments. I also loved how much Trevor took care of Lexi especially during the storm. The chemistry was always there and it was so satisfying when these two finally threw caution to the wind and owned up to their feelings. They definitely make you work for that HEA! But as always with Savannah’s stories, this was lighthearted, super sweet, and swoony. I can always count on her for a feel good read! I did listen to the audiobook and the narrators were fantastic!Thank you to Dreamscape Media and NetGalley for an advanced audio copy. My thoughts are my own.

Sweet childhood friends to lovers
Lexi and Trevor have been friends for forever, growing up down the street from each other to now working at Corn Corners Tribune together. From their pizza movie nights to carpooling to work, they are always there for each other. But could they ever be more? After a few failed attempts at crossing the line, both are wary to try again. But everything they’ve ever wanted could be right in front of them, if only they’re brave enough to go for it.Ahh am I a sucker for a good friends to lovers story. Especially if it’s a childhood friends to lovers, then I’m swooning hard.The ease of their friendship and how it made such a solid and amazing base for a relationship was just beautiful. From their support to their banter to their chemistry it was just perfection!And don’t mind me over here just continuing to further fall in love with @savannahscott writing. The way she makes every character so charming and real is just addicting. The movie references (especially from Sound of Music) are something I’ve learned are a part of her writing as well and I absolutely love it. It makes me giddy every time I find one!Another thing I love about her writing is how easily I find myself invested in these relationships. I found myself screaming at my kindle (similar to how my husband screams at the TV during football season 😂) for them to just talk to one another and admit their feelings. I wanted them to get together so badly but I also totally understood why they were cautious, not wanting to risk their lifelong friendship.Bordeaux oh Bordeaux how I would love to live or at least visit there but since I can’t I’ll continue to binge my way through the series and eagerly await Crusieshipped!

Sweet Slowburn Romance
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐Steam Level: 🔥 (kissing only)Trevor and Lexi have been best friends for eight years. While Trevor made two failed attempts at romance over the years, Lexi has kept her feelings locked up tight. Now they're both back in their hometown, living next door to each other, and working at the local paper together. It's officially time to either get out of the friend zone or move on. Soon Lexi is roped into trying out online dating and ends up with several failed love connections while Trevor is reunited with an ex-girlfriend who is eager to get back together. But even these prospects can't make them forget their feelings for each other. Can they finally take a chance and pursue a relationship together?I enjoyed getting my first glimpse of Bordeaux, Ohio with Trevor and Lexi's story. I am always excited to read a friends to lovers story, and it was nice to see that Trevor had actually tried to start a romantic relationship with Lexi in the past. This also helped make his hesitancy to make a move this time more understandable. The inner dialogue of both characters did get a bit repetitive as the story went on, and their self-doubt ended up being the main conflict they had to overcome. Luckily there was still plenty to keep me engaged thanks to all the failed attempts they both made at finding love elsewhere. Lexi had quite a few entertaining dates throughout the book, and I liked seeing Trevor making fun of each guy and getting jealous. I also liked how Trevor's ex-girlfriend was shamelessly throwing herself at him and ruffling Lexi's feathers. Although it took a LONG time for Trevor and Lexi to finally get out of the friend zone, the epilogue was very sweet. I'm actually really excited to read about Rob and Laura in book 2. I think they're going to have a fun second chance romance!

I loved this story so much
This was the best romance novel I've ever read. What a beautiful story, great characters, friends since childhood. The suspense of totally loving each other but being so cautious so as to not destroy their perfect friendship. So sweet, like a dream come true.

4.5 ⭐️
This was super sweet. Slow burn very clean. The characters were very sweet if a little blind. Not too much tension, chaos or misunderstandings. Made me smile throughout

A slow burn
The story of Trevor and Lexi was classic but excruciatingly drawn out. Why two seamingly well adjusted adults can't just have a simple conversation about their feelings is beyond me. Too slooowww.
