About That Kiss by Harper Bliss

4.5

This is a lovely later-in-life coming out/sapphic awakening romance, with low angst. I really enjoyed all of the characters, although only Ida and Faye were fully fleshed out. The two of them develop a lovely friendship and camaraderie that’s really nice to see, but it’s the discovery of themselves and ultimately being true to who they are that really shines. The alternating perspective opens up the inner thoughts of both, and makes the spicy scenes…well, spicier.

It’s also really lovely to have two MCs who are both middle aged, confident, and open to what this stage of life brings to them. I don’t often get to see older women in sapphic fiction outside of age gap, but as someone who fits that general description I really like it and wish there was more.
