I LOVE THIS BOOK. I. Love. This. Book. LOVE IT. It’s erotica but…sweet? How that works, I’m not sure but it does and I just…squee!This is the story of Sandy and Jason, best friends since childhood. He’s fresh off of a divorce, and she’s in an abusive relationship. They’ve always had feelings for one another but never acted on it…til now. It’s the ups and downs of their relationship, and their story of trying to navigate from best friends to lovers and beyond.These characters were fantastic and just made for one another. I love all of their interactions, whether it’s flashbacks to their high school years or being in the moment with them at the current time. I also love love loved how dialogue heavy this book is. You’re not all up in their minds. They talk things out…or screw it out or argue it out. You see what I’m saying. There’s no wondering what’s going on or if they’re feeling the same way as one another. You see it all play out and I LOVE that. They’re so passionate about one another and you feel it 100%. You also know from the first time you see them in the same room how they feel about one another, even if they aren’t saying that yet. It was just the most perfect example of best friends turned lovers. They clicked.Oh and did I mention how HOT this book is? No? Okay, yea, this book…whew! So yummy. I don’t do erotica very often. I’m the mushy and emotional reader. I like to cry and have my heart broken. But Theresa drew me in with this one and it was so, so good. It was exactly what I needed. The last few books I’ve read have been a bit fluffy and/or dark. This was right down my alley this weekend and now I still can’t NOT think about it.I will say…considering we’re supposed to write honest reviews… The flashbacks sometimes confused me. It felt like there needed to be a bit more separation between current and past. That is my one and only complaint, and even that wasn’t a deal breaker. It’s not hard to follow along with the flips in time, it just kind of seemed confusing a teeny tiny bit.Overall, I LOVED this book. It’s such a sweet story of two people deciding to just go for it and letting themselves be together. It was steamy, angsty, romantic, and everything we love in our romance novels. I can’t suggest Chat enough. Theresa Rite is a favorite and I can’t wait for more.<3 Erin
