Alison Cochrun is CEO of writing the most diverse characters! I’m not sure the cast could have been more diverse and the dialogue about privilege is interlaced so perfectly with her stories it’s almost like she’s writing real people that actually experience it.  I read her novel kiss her once for me first and I think I liked that one better but this was still such an adorable and worth while read.  The premise is so perfect and although the ending was predictable, I still liked the way things played out.  There were several scenes that were very cute and dreamy and I’m just personally not a fan of scenes like that being in there if they don’t really advance the plot,  but they were still
Fun.  If you’re looking for a light hearted yet reflective gay romance read this now!!!
