Rating: B
A very good age-gap romance novel about two people looking for the same thing: someone to love them. I found the nook really wholesome and some moments were very cute and fulfilling but the drama and arguments were petty and meaningless. I did like the parts towards the end about the two main characters' interactions but ultimately I didn't feel the book was very sexy - plus it falls into the tropes of movie magic sex scenes. 😉
