This story was cute and cozy. A sweet slow burn romance between a principal and teacher who don’t quite see eye to eye but come together on a mission to raise money to remodel their school’s library. The characters came off a bit childish to me to say they are thirty somethings. Bri spent so much time in her head. It would have been great to get Roman’s POV. I think it would have helped make the romance a bit more believable. My fav part of this book was the space Mars simulation adventure. This was so fun and unique. I enjoyed how the teachers worked together to problem solve and make their way through the different tasks and experiments they had to perform. If you enjoy forced proximity, workplace romance, enemies to lovers and a story that kind of gives an Abbott Elementary vibe you’ll enjoy this one.

This novel was the perfect length for this funny, original and fresh romance! I love Easton’s writing style and relatable characters. A beautiful slow burn with a couple dashes of spice. I definitely want to read her other story now.

Although I enjoyed this unique romance, it didn’t do enough for me. The romance between Bri and Roman didn’t seem real enough to me.
Also, I listened to this as an audiobook and the narrator was not great.
