This book had me hooked from the first page and as a trans man, i loved reading about a T4T romance. (more of that in media please) Honestly the main character left me feeling frustrated maaaany times but his character development was the best! Really had a good time with this one and man i just love everything Mason Deaver writes, they're amazing.

And omg.. the way the first line of this book is "I love you." and the last one is "I love you too." PERFECT. COULDN'T BE MORE PERFECT.

The first two thirds were perfection. Beautiful development and beautiful use of the fake-dating trope. 

Then came the third act drama, and I wish that was done differently. I know this book is following all the typical tropes and yet I hoped for a different ending. I hate it every time a romance book does this and this one was no different. I feel like a different ending would have felt nicer and healthier. Especially with Neil’s mom I wish it was handled differently. She is still not painted as perfect of course, but the road to forgiveness was entered too quickly. But also Neil and Wyatt’s relationship could have been given more time to deal with their issues and the way that Neil struggles with his emotions and his relationships. I was waiting for more shared conversations about this in particular. 

In the end, I still flew through the pages. It was so easy and light to read that I lost track of time and kept going as long as I could.

And of course, I love the trans rep. Mason does it beautifully and it makes me want to read everything they write. Add to that their writing style that is perfect for me, and you get me gushing all over their books. I saw a lot of myself in Wyatt, both in their experience with their gender and their personality, so they were wonderful to watch and  to see them grow.
