This book was an absolute delight! A friends to enemies to lovers structured by Said and Tiwa's POVs and a third, third person narrative. It's funny, full of heart, and second changes - for the characters and their community.

YES. This is one of my most anticipated reads of the year. I love both authors and was so excited to hear that they were writing a book together, I just knew it would be fantastic. It was the perfect mix of how they both write. I loved Said and Tiwa and felt very connected to all of the characters. The narrators did a fantastic job at bringing the characters to life. Thank you to Macmillan Audio for providing me with this ARC.
