My first 5 star of the year!!!! I absolutely loved everything about this from the characters to the setting to the plot to the banter. Mira was the most relatable fmc I think I’ve ever read because she was so real. She had worries and doubts but she was also smart and confident and I just saw so much of myself in her. And Stefan was one of the best mmcs I’ve read in a while. He had such a rough past and carried that with him well and didn’t let it defined him but the way it affected him felt realistic. He was comfortable with his emotions and was able to communicate which I loved. I also loved how smart they both were and their banter and tension because it was just so good. This story was just something special and I am so glad that I read it.
