📚 Y'all, I love Cherry so much! Hibbert is so great at creating women who power their way through the world, but aren't so armored that the book becomes entirely about letting down walls.
📚 Loved the extremely casual bisexual rep - Hibbert is the queen of "everyone's a little queer."
📚 Loved how populated this book felt for being a standalone - Ruben and Cherry had what felt like complete lives and relationships outside of each other.
📚 This book's main drawback for me was that the power/kink stuff felt really undernegotiated - Cherry barely consented to it at the beginning and then didn’t have much of a say in how it proceeded.
