I loved the story and the characters, but the romance got a little too steamy for my taste. However, the story is fun and the characters definitely pull at your heartstrings.

"Without Elle's fingers twined with hers, Darcy didn't know what to do with her hands as she was suddenly absurdly aware of them"

It did what it was trying to do, but I thought it was “meh”.

Cute sapphic romances is where it’s at right now. I loved seeing these two opposites attract and fake date each other. The disastrous first date was great. It was sweet lighthearted and it’s just a fun distraction from life for sure. Loving queer romances.

”Nothing did justice to the feeling of someone looking into your eyes and connecting with you on a soul-deep level.”
I loved how sure Elizabeth “Elle” Marie Jones was about what she wanted and what she was looking for. I also loved how she put Brendon in his place when things blew up between her and Darcy Lowell. While I understand where Darcy is coming from, I had a hard time ”believing it” so to speak. After having read two thirds of the book I honestly felt that Darcy put more effort into getting to know Elle’s interest (ironically) than Elle to Darcy. I would have wanted it shown more that Elle sat down with Darcy and watched soap operas, or something. Do not get me wrong, Elle did things for Darcy, but I felt like I missed the everyday stuff a bit.
Tropes:
- Faking dating
- Opposites attract
