The chemistry between our two characters was fantastic.  It really felt like they were picking up pretty much where they left off.  I thought the way Hibbert worked in details about their past together was really well done. I was really quickly invested in these characters and emotionally connected to the story despite this being pretty much the exact opposite of trope candy for me.  I loved how immediately caring Samir was toward Laura but also how attracted he was to her.  While this was a novella, the story does take place over 6ish (?) months and the first few months were just them reconnecting and rebuilding their friendship. This was low angst between the main couple and pretty much all the conflict came from outside the relationship which I liked

It was good romance where the main love interest is a complete simp. It’s a friends-to-lovers-to-strangers-to-friends-to-lovers.  It’s not long at all. I was reading and didn’t even notice that I was 86% finished and it wasn’t a 500 page slow burn where the first kiss is at pg 498😭
