Review Source: ARC provided by author

I crawled into Ryan Jensen’s bed that first night by accident.

I barely knew him. I thought it was his sister’s bed—her room. It took seconds to realize my error, and I should've left...

I didn’t.
I didn’t jump out.
I didn’t get embarrassed.
I relaxed.
And that night, in that moment, it was the only thing I craved.

I asked to stay. He let me, and I slept.

The truth? I never wanted to leave his bed. If I could've stayed forever, I would have.
He became my sanctuary.

Because—four hours earlier—my twin sister killed herself.

This is my first ever book by Tijan. I was captured from the very beginning. My first impression of Tijan is - WOWWWWWWWW - all the f'in feels. Tijan evoked emotions in me I haven't felt in a long time. I will most definitely be reading all the books. I can only imagine what else is in store!

So, Ryan's Bed talks about very heavy subjects.  I went in blind, which is how I normally like it, so I was a little surprised by the storyline (in a good way).  I am obsessed with Ryan's character. He Is just so supportive, kind, gorgeous, and super athletic. Every single time he went out of his way to comfort Mac, I swooned. He is absolutely the perfect male specimen. He didn't have a single quality I didn't like. Mac has been through what no one should ever have to go through. She loses her twin sister suddenly and unexpectedly to suicide, and this story is about how she copes and heals. I think she is an extremely strong person. I love her and there are so many times while reading that I wanted to reach in the book and give her a big hug.

Ryan and Mac's relationship was born out of mutual grief but bloomed into something truly magical. You could feel the love they had for one another on every page. I also really like Ryan's friends: Nick, Tom, Cora, and Kirk. They are all very supportive of one another, all dealing with their own experiences of grief.

I am rating this book 4.5 stars because it was so so good and I loved it! It made me smile, cry, laugh, and made my heart ache. It was not what I was expecting at all, in an amazing way. It was a refreshing change of pace. Not your typical romance. I highly recommend this book! Gooooo one click!
