YOU HAD ME AT HAPPY HOUR is a spicy, queer romance about a sommelier and a mixologist who decide to become friends with benefits since neither one of them is looking for a relationship. as their physical relationship progresses, they find themselves having more-than-platonic feelings for each other. this was such a good romance that touched on a lot of important themes like mental health, alcoholism, OCD, ED, among others, but still managed to be lighthearted and a fun read.
