Synopsis: 

Everyone at the prestigious Bexley School believes that Sage Morgan and Charlie Carmichael are meant to be….that it’s just a matter of time until they realize that they are actually in love.

When Luke Morrissey shows up on the Bexley campus his presence immediately shakes things up. Charlie and Luke are drawn to each other the moment they meet, giving Sage the opportunity to steal away to spend time with Charlie’s twin brother, Nick.

But Charlie is afraid of what others will think if he accepts that he has much more than a friendship with Luke. And Sage fears that things with Nick are getting too serious too quickly. The duo will need to rely on each other and their lifelong friendship to figure things out with the boys they love. 


Review: 

If We Were Us is told from Sage and Charlie’s perspectives. I enjoyed Charlie’s perspective a bit more than Sage. Sage seemed a bit bland? Not a bad character by any means, there just didn’t seem to be anything unique about her. ⁣
The friendships and relationships in this book are what made it for me. Charlie and Sage’s dynamic, and all the various couples, were enjoyable to read and made me want to be a part of the group. There were parts where I genuinely laughed out loud. I would have loved to join in their shenanigans. ⁣
I did feel pretty strongly about a certain aspect of the book rubbing the wrong way, but I don’t want to spoil anything. So feel free to reach out if you want to talk about it!
