About this listen

Romance is weakness, and Jasmine Allen doesn’t have time for either. Lifelong cynic Jas is the queen of one-night things—until a plumbing disaster screws everything up and leaves her temporarily homeless. Luckily, she has someone to turn to: her best friend Rahul.

For seven years, Rahul Khan has followed three simple rules.

-Don’t touch Jasmine if you can help it.

-Don’t look at her arse in that skirt.

-And don’t ever—ever—tell her you love her.

He should’ve added another rule: Do not, under any circumstances, let Jas move into your house.

Now Rahul is living with the friend he can’t have, and it’s decimating his control. He knows their shared dinners aren’t dates, their late-night kisses are a mistake, and the tenderness in Jasmine’s gaze is only temporary. One wrong word could send his skittish best friend running. So why is he tempted to risk it all?

I really wanted to like this book, and I think I might have if I'd done a physical read instead of the audiobook - it's rare that I don't enjoy a book because of it's narration but this was just very slow? The narration just made me zone out a bit, I wish it had been a bit more lively and emphatic at certain parts - it was a very slow and soft cadence, and a bit monotone at times that it made it hard for me to really engage with this story.

The banter between Jasmine and Rahul was a highlight for me, and Rahul was so down bad for Jasmine from the start which I loved. The third-act breakup hurt my heard BAD but it was also a third-act breakup that made sense!! Jasmine especially had a lot of work to do and healing to start before she could really be in a relationship with Rahul, and as much as it hurt in the interim it made for a very satisfying and beautiful reunion <3

narration was not for me
