Harlow has a blooming business as a hair stylist, she owns her own home and she has a loving family and some great friends. But she can't help feeling that life is passing her by. She's not brave or adventurous and everyday things that others take for granted she has missed out on.
After plucking up the courage to try online dating she suffers through the date from he((. Thankfully Blaze was at a neighbouring table and acted as her white knight. From that meet-cute these two blossom into one of the cutest, sweetest and adventurous couples at HSO!
Blaze is everything that Harlow wants to be: outgoing, adventurous, experienced. He's also kind, determined and patient - all things Harlow needs to let her shine!
I loved the fraught opening - wondering what on earth happens that leads Harlow into that situation. Then the super slow burn and intense chemistry between Harlow and Blaze is just - mwaaah perfection. Blaze never makes Harlow feel less than and at times is stumped by her reaction to otherwise banal comments. But once things are explained we realise that whilst smart and savvy she is also terribly naïve and inexperienced in certain areas.
I love getting to see all the previous couples pop in and out of the following stories - it's like seeing old friends. Roll on the next book!
