This book was perfection. It’s a historical fiction, friends to lovers book set in 1950s New York, when it was illegal and very dangerous to be queer. This couple not only has to figure out how to be in a loving relationship together but also how to break down the walls of traditional masculinity to be themselves with each other. It’s sappy and lovely and way more than I thought it was going to be!
