It's been quite I while since I read one of Rachel Lacey's Stranded books, but that didn't diminish this book in the slightest. It is also, I believe, my first foray into a F/F romance! I have to say, this was a very interesting read!

I loved the slow burn of the romance between Fiona and Nicole! I also found it easy to identify and connect with Fiona. I really loved Fiona's dictate to Nicole that they take time apart for Nicole to find herself, as I felt that her concerns were extremely realistic of the situation. I suspected something had happened in Fiona's past, but the reveal of it was a complete surprise for me! I loved how Nicole's parents viewed themselves as "Modern" Catholics, since more traditionalist Catholics are the reason I left that faith entirely, so many years ago!

This was a quick read, but told a complete story, and was very engaging and entertaining to me! I can't wait to see where the rest of the series goes!
