I LOVED THIS BOOK SO MUCH. brb, gotta run to read Susannaa's backlist.  I loved the dynamic of grumpy-sunshine and theater lovers and how their writing was foreplay without them even knowing.

There was so much dramatic irony in this story (with the secret identities) which usually would annoy me, but it worked soooo well.

There was a little miscommunication but she didn't let that be the conflict, just more angst.

No full third act break up but still plenty of conflict.

The audiobook was so good! At first I was worried Julia's accent was going to be an issue, but it worked in the end.

I was also v hot.
