I read Chef's Choice first and I gotta say I definitely prefer that one over this one. It was just very difficult to empathize with Simone, a cis person, struggling with the transphobia her love interest faced and making it all about her for over half of the book. It still gets 4 stars because TJ Alexander is an incredible writer. The way they write transphobia is so painfully realistic and Ray was such a loveable character, definitley worth struggling through Simone's cis guilt for.

This is very much an ally’s intro to nonbinary people and queer romance. And not a particularly good one at that.
