I also liked Red quite a bit, which is surprising because I'm usually not a big fan of men in romance novels. But he reminded me of my partner, with his compassion and always paying close attention to Chloe and anticipating her needs. I saw some reviews complaining that he was a mind reader, but I disagree. He simply paid attention to her physical signs of pain and exhaustion and acted accordingly. Literally the least we can expect from a devoted partner, in my opinion.
The smut wasn't for me, but that's not unusual. It also was unnecessarily dramatic at times, but I feel like that's easily forgiven with books like this.
Overall, I found it to be a very relaxing and fun read with much appreciated diversity and accurate disability representation.

I saw so much of myself in the MC. And seeing her learning to take a leap and break through her conditioned behaviour is honestly a little healing, especially when it comes to dating and relationships.
Really enjoyed this book, really connected with everyone. We love a man written by a woman. We love good representation for black people, Plus-Size people, and disabled people.
This just made me chest feel a bit warm and fuzzy and made me feel a little bit braver to stray from my set ways of life that may be comfortable, but aren't actually helping me in the long run.
