This was such a great romance. I'd never read anything by Alexis Hall before and I was so pleased to find I loved his writing. Slow burn romances only work for me when I really care about the characters and luckily that was the case here. I thought Viola and Justin were both really well developed and I enjoyed the dual perspective narrative. There's very little plot apart from their relationship but I thought the tension between them was so good and it was enough to keep me hooked. None of Hall's other books are really leaping out at me yet but I do want to read more of his writing in the future so I'll keep my eye out.
