This is a great read that gets into the complexities of navigating figuring out your sexuality, family expectations, and romantic love. Highly recommend this sweet and cozy LGBTQIA+ love story which doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff.

I love the premise of this story and desperately want to read more stories with elder queers. But I felt the plot was a little underdeveloped, and that made it challenging to be as invested in some of the characters. Furthermore, I didn't like that parts of the story (such as James' backstory and the honeymoon) were in other books that you would also need to purchase and read to make sense of this story. I'd rather this just have been a longer volume with all of those elements incorporated.

This was good. I just didn’t love the cheating aspect. I understand and get why it happened and does happen in real life, but I just don’t like cheating. Also it made me a little uncomfortable that they haven’t seen each other in like 30 years or something and she just kissed her. I do like the representation borne race and sexuality. It was cute fore the most part, oh also there was like hardly any bingo not that it matters but still.
