The sweetest book! It was light, funny, charming and all that good stuff!!
Mickey was true sunshine. The author got the grumpy sunshine dynamic so right! Like it was genuine and you couldn’t help fall in love with Mickey. It wasn’t cringey, and she didn’t come across stupid, instead she was a genuinely kind soul that you wanted to love. I thought the storyline of her hyperthyroidism was unique and added some substance to her character.

Mickey Chambers is struggling as an adjunct professor. She can’t teach enough classes to get health insurance or cover her medications, and at 33 she’d like to feel like she’s able to handle her own life.
She picks up a second job at a bar, the Saloon, where she meets the very attractive 42 year old Diego. Diego happens to be a student in her one summer class, but he’s also her boss. And as Mickey says:
She picks up a second job at a bar, the Saloon, where she meets the very attractive 42 year old Diego. Diego happens to be a student in her one summer class, but he’s also her boss. And as Mickey says:
Two obvious rules stared her in the face—one: you don’t kiss your student, and two: you don’t kiss your boss.
This book was fast paced, funny, and real. I loved Mickey and Diego. And as a chronically single girl, it gave me hope that a whole lot of dating life can be good after 30 😂
