ೃ — An easy five-star read! I absolutely ate this book up. I even read it in one sitting because I can't just put it down. The story follows Alaska who is a phone sex worker who strikes up an unusual relationship with Zuko, only ever speaking on the phone, they end up meeting one night at the bar where she works in, she recognizes his voice but he doesn't know it's her.

First of all, everything in this book screams perfection. Alaska and Zuko were a match made in heaven. I liked that they both have strong personalities which made them perfect for each other. Plus, Zuko was one of the hottest red flags in the entire fictional universe. The concept of the story was dark, but there were lots of moments that made me laugh. Also the touch her and you die trope and spicy scenes were out of this world.
