On Valentine's Day, Callum sent an email to his professor. The thing is he sends it to a girl named Tara and ever since then they send an email to each other on Valentine’s Day as they slowly fall for each other.

It was okay. I mean it’s a short novella so I don’t expect it to be great but I thought Christina Lauren was a closed door author or at least didn’t talk about sex but I was wrong. Tara just starts thrusting after Callum and I didn’t want to listen to that at the moment. Also, this book makes fun of the whole trope of “they don’t know each other, but do they??” and it just made it more cringey to me.
