Sorry this review isn't helpful.

Loved it. Want more. Enjoyed the homage to P & P

There's a bit that's unresolved, or I might have missed it since I did the audio version, and could have possibly been in a groove and missed a scene.

Need to get it in print. Now to go read the follow up with Brandon and Annie.

This was cute. But I felt like the fake dating didn’t last that long and we honestly hardly got to see it. They were cute together though and I really liked Elle. The family in this was honestly annoying even Brandon. Like they all grew but my god.

This was a cute, comfortable read that I would recommend if you need something light. I loved the bi representation and the portrayal of astrology as a tool for self-reflection. I didn't feel fully invested in both of the main characters, but overall it was an enjoyable read and I was definitely laughing out loud at a lot of points. Elle was a fantastic character.

This was such a cute and fast paced sapphic romance! 

I loved watching Elle and Darcy crash together and learn to love each other! I love fake dating tropes and this one was really well done.

I also loved the subtle Pride and Prejudice references! Small enough that it wasn't a retelling but enough to notice the similarities and really get thinking about how the story themes matched! So cute!
