I was very excited to read Rachel Lindsay’s first work in fiction and had to give it a read! The beginning is slow and the main character, Maya, is not very fun or interesting to follow initially. Her life is pretty sad and boring. However, once Maya’s younger sister Ella is introduced and Kai, the love interest, it really picks up steam! Kai’s influence on Maya launches a journey of self-discovery beyond just romance. The metaphor of her bare beige apartment and her wanting to add color to it translates well to her wanting to reconnect with her own passion life! If you’re a fan of the bachelor, this is a fun, light-hearted read with some popcorn-worthy drama I can’t spoil!  Thank you to NetGalley and Random House for the ARC in return for an honest review
