I'm Gonna Get You Back was a fast-paced read, but the pacing worked well for this story. The foundation for Turner and Frankie’s relationship was laid nicely, and it was clear they shared a deep bond that went beyond her being his best friend’s little sister. He was her best friend too, and they had such an understanding of each other. Frankie’s feelings for Turner had shaped so much of her life. When she found out that he was engaged, she left and cut herself off from almost everyone.

Once they revealed their feelings, they had many sweet moments together, and Turner’s protectiveness and encouragement toward Frankie made it easy to root for them. The only part that didn’t fully work for me was Turner dating and then getting engaged to Frankie’s best friend. He admitted that he only did that because he couldn’t have Frankie. That was a little questionable. Even so, I still liked both characters overall and thought their chemistry was strong.

I also had no issues with the stalker plotline. It fit the story for me, and I found the stalker's motivation interesting and believable. I appreciated that the epilogue showed they were still healing from that trauma rather than pretending everything was suddenly perfect.

Final Thoughts

I’m Gonna Get You Back was a well-paced, satisfying novella. Turner and Frankie had a strong foundation, years of history, and enough chemistry to make it easy to root for them. The most concerning thing was Turner’s justification for getting engaged to another woman, given how deeply in love he was with Frankie.
