Thank you to Netgalley, Underlined, and TBR and Beyond Tours for an arc of this book.

Daniel "Rotten" has a completely unearned Bad-Boy reputation in the band he is in--ironic, considering he is demisexual and hasn't been with any of the girls the media says he has one night stands with. Meanwhile, Sasha is working for tabloids trying to build up her credibility as a musical journalist.  When she is given the opportunity to get closer to Daniel to unearth his secrets and get a front page story, will she risk losing the boy she accidentally fell for in order to further her career?

This book is SO CUTE! Unfortunately, I felt like it was too short and I just wanted more of these two adorable queer disaster children! There were parts that were really fast paced when I wanted to linger on the relationship and the character development. But overall I absolutely LOVED this book. I love Sasha and Daniel and them discovering more about themselves and learning each other. So cute.

This book has pansexual and demisexual rep, as well as two Brazilian characters and an English Language Learner! I really enjoyed the way all of this was handled except I wish it had talked a little more about what Sasha's pansexuality meant to her.
