I’m not a big romance reader, but once when I was having a rough period of time a friend of mine sent me a care package with this book in it. I’ve been saving it for a month when I needed a light, fluffy pick me up and I just now finally decided to read it.
I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. This book did not rely on excessive miscommunication or a fight that didn’t make sense. Instead, we have to characters who practice relatively healthy communication through the majority of the book. That was so refreshing.
I also enjoyed that the sexual tension between them was natural and that their relationship went at a natural pace. There weren’t stupid, transparent scenarios that kept getting in the way of their hook ups to keep the reader invested. It all honestly felt very natural.
All in all, I thought this was a sweet, fun romance. Ive seen others state that this didn’t have enough conflict, but I appreciated that. This felt like a normal relationship instead of some overhyped, conflict riddled approximation of a relationship.
