This was so cute! I loved the T4T romance 😍 JP and Luna were adorable. The fake dating meet cute was hilarious and I enjoyed the cooking that was mixed in with the storyline.
While I liked the beginning and ends of the book, the middle felt really slow. Initially I wasn’t as keen on JP and Luna’s relationship. It seemed like they kept fighting then apologizing and then their relationship advanced.
A few times JP was annoying as a character too. But he slowly got better. Obviously no character is perfect but these two seemed to become better people throughout the story. Would have liked to see more from JP’s grandmother since she’s hyped up a few times in the story. And less screen time from his trans hating family. But I understand that this is an accurate portrayal of family. Overall really cute. Would recommend to folks who want a T4T romance with cooking fun and some diverse enby characters
