First Impressions
All of You is the first book in the "Between Breaths" series and I really had a good solid time with this one. This author has been on my TBR for over a decade, so I am grateful to the Romanceopoly Reading Challenge so that I could get to this series and its also a great way for me to get back to NA as I don't read this sub genre as I would like to. All of You was a really neat story and I really enjoyed it quite a bit. It didn't wow me or anything, but it was poignant and I really enjoyed this pair together. It has a mix of friends to lovers, with unrequited love and a bit of a fling. And these elements actually went great together.

First Line
Love was like a loaded gun.

The Main Protagonists
 The Hero: Bennett
 The Heroine: Avery

Summary
Avery Michaels is studying to be a nurse and isn't looking for anything serious. She is more than content going from man to man in casual relationships. Avery has only seen examples of bad relationships in her life and doesn't see them being worth it and doesn't want to turn into her mother who has had toxic relationship after another. But then she meets her new next door neighbor, who is kind and down to earth and is looking for committment. Even though she isn't looking for anything serious, she can't deny the connection that they have together. Bennett is determined to win Avery's heart, and prove to her that they are worth fighting for...

What I Loved
All of you was a pretty solid NA romance. I really loved the way that this story was developed. Even though casual relationships aren't my favorite trope to read, Christina Lee, handled the growth of it very well. You see why the heroine is the way that she is, and why she is so apprehensive of serious relationships. The hero is a blend of green flag with a bit of a bad boy to be tempting. They have a strong connection to each other. Bennett pines so well after Avery, he doesn't give up on her, even when she hurts him with her avoidance of what they have together. Bennett is a virgin hero, because he is waiting for love and won't settle for less. It does have some charming aspects of friendship to it becoming more serious. Seeing the slow evolvement of trust and openness that these two learn to cultivate together was so poignant at times and was very endearing in its own way.

What I Struggled With
The pacing could have been a bit smoother, there was a couple of plot holes here and there and I do wish there was higher level of engagement of the story.

Overall View
All Of You is a emotional read that is a mix of spicy and sweet with powerful poignant moments to captivate you.
