- set in world of NBA
- basketball romance
- fashion designer X basketballer
- Lotus the woman you are 
- I do wish that Lotus didn’t give in to August feelings that quick tho
- I wish it would been MORE slow-burning
- single-dad (technically)
- shitty ex-wife (Bridget I hate you)
- age gap (11 years)
- also contains triggering materials (SA, parental abandonment, suicide)
- also contains southern Louisiana charm
- I personally think of Lotus as those earth girls with the waist beads and turbans (erkyah Bada inspired)
- this man gifted her LOTUS flowers EVERY week with a letter from the Songs of Solomon 🥹🥹
