Cute read! While I love Tiffy and Leon, I feel like Richie stole the show. Ms. O’Leary I want to officially request a Richie novel please.

i really liked the book i started shaking because of it but the only thing i didn't like is that there wasn't any quotation marks which made it harder to read

3.5

Nice fluffy romance with a bit of realistic drama and a dash of spice. I'm happy I went with the audio version because having dual POV, read by actors I could actual picture as their characters was lovely. 

Miscommunication trope, but is resolved fairly quickly. 

I've rated it a 3.5 rather than a 4, only because I had some trouble getting into it. Nothing against it at all, it just didn't hook me for some reason.
