I thought the first book was better. For me, this one lacked depth. I love books that dig deeper, and it was hard for me to connect with this more casual “situationship” vibe. If that’s your thing, you might enjoy it more, but it just wasn’t for me. This book ultimately solidified my decision not to continue the series.

This was soo good!!!
I love a really good romance. I love fake dating. I loved the characters. It was just so good! I love that she was a nerd. I love the anxiety rep. I loved that it was LGBTQ+! It was just really good!
It made me smile so much! I was nervous hearing the hype for this one that I wouldn’t like it as much as Chloe. But I loved it more! I loved Dani so much! I love her love interest! I love that you still see the sisters throughout it.
I can’t wait for the last of the sisters! They’re just really good!

My favorite romance book and this along with other Hibbert books made me feel lovable as a black girl and helped me realize we deserve love. There aren’t enough non struggle romance books where we get a usual romance trope
I loved this book and the two gorgeous but oh so silly leads of Dani and Zaf. These two wonderfully crafted idiots thought they could do a fake relationship and not catch feelings? Lol, fools!!! The story was funny, heartbreaking in parts and entertaining from start to finish. Dani and Zaf had adorable banter and sizzling, smoking chemistry throughout.
I loved Dani, a badass, bisexual , academic nerdy goddess. Loved all her confidence with everything in her life except when it came to love. I hated, but understood, that a crappy relationship had such a knock on effect on her outlook. I also really loved her dedication and passion for her career, which is always a joy to see. As with all of Talia’s male leads Zaf was just a delight. I love a “moody” character who just melts into goo because of the person they love. Depression and anxiety are not things that I’ve come across in many romance books especially when it comes to the Hero of the story. Zaf’s loss and the impact it had on him and how he dealt with it and channeled it into something that could help others with their own mental health was handled so well by the author and felt so incredibly real.
Excellent supporting characters as well in Sorcha, Fatima, Kiran, Jamal and the other two Brown sisters. I laughed and I cried a little and I cannot wait for Eve’s story. 5 star read.
