It earned a 5 because the characters really are wonderful, the romance is great, and they act quite believably given the backgrounds they both have.

One character has past trauma that they deal with the repercussions of. It is not currently occuring, and they are safe.kelseyburnell's review against another edition

The male character used to be in an abusive relationship, that’s what most of the content warnings are aboutthirdeyeangel23's review against another edition

The pacing is perfect and I knew this was going to be something special right away. I’m absolutely thrilled to find a main character with a chronic illness that doesn’t spend the whole book consumed with woes about it. Chloe has her good days and her bad days and either way she still has a personality. Similarly, Red is supportive and thoughtful without infantilizing Chloe or sexualizing her disability, and he also has a personality outside of her, plus his own issues that he’s dealing with. It’s refreshing to see a diverse cast that feel like real people and doesn’t seem to be ticking off boxes for representation. The spice was also excellent without feeling overly vulgar which is a serious achievement.
Mind the trigger warnings!
