I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for a review.



This is Arreguin’s debut novel and it features two Asian American characters working in a premier hotel in Vegas. This story features suspense, swoonworthy moments and excellent food descriptions! I’ve been rooting for Brittany for a while and her debut is adorable.

This books conversation on purity culture and what it’s like to grow up in the church healed parts me of I didn’t know I needed. 


the unplanned pregnancy wasn’t my favorite and I think took away some of the important conversation they started about purity culture.  Still a phenomenal book!
