This book made me cry, giggle and kick my feet. Educational as well.  I learned that a good apology needs a bit of dry-humping. 😂

I freaking love this book.  I love Gem and Rusty. I want to hug and squeeze them.  I might even want to nibble. 

Rusty has a rough past. He keeps his grumpy distance to survive. With every layer that unfolded,  I loved him even more. 

Gem is a big sweetheart with two hearts and a lot of arms.  I don't think the word subtle is in his dictionary. He loves deeply and gives freely.  But nobody stayed. 

They are perfect together.  It was beautiful to see them fall in love in a exquisite slow burn. All my heartstrings were plucked. 

I have adhd, but my brain squirrels have no problem focusing with this book. The storytelling pulled me in and immersed me completely into this world. 
There are so many moments and sometimes complete chapters that I cherish. 

It was great to see the rest of the crew too. The cafe is a great place to be.
