The first straight romance I’ve read this year where I actually liked the male MC!!
This had a slow start but picked up really well and I ended up enjoying this immensely.
I loved the amazing representation for disability and plus sized people, it was written in such a way that is directly against the usual “disabled and/or plus sized are unattractive/sexually unavailable” way. And done so incredibly well! Be warned, it’s spicier than it seems like it would be. And I think this is done intentionally to show that, yes, these groups want/have/enjoy sex!
I was worried that the miscommunication trope would ruin this for me but actually it’s the most well-written example of this trope I’ve come across. It didn’t last very long and the MCs deal with it in a mature and realistic way.
Loved the characters and the writing!
