I liked the chronic pain rep and the male being abused in relationship rep. I think this book had a lot of good commentary and representation in general for “just being a romance book”.
I really liked how Red and Chloe played off each other — from cute nicknames like Button, to their abilities to mess with one another, to the perfect amount of spice.
It didn’t get 5 stars bc I am now an annoyingly picky romance reader. I think there could’ve been more side character interaction than there was instead of just Red and Chloe all the time. I get why (because they both were hiding), but still. There was still the breakup moment which is getting old in romances but I did like how Talia Hibbert used this moment to have the characters do some internal retrospective work regarding their traumas —that was actually refreshing. Lastly, sometimes the romance seemed a LITTLE too fast for my taste but still it was enemies to lovers so I’m here for that.
Overall a really cute romance that I found myself smiling and laughing at often. And definitely happy with the amount of spice wow. Definitely going to read about the other Brown sisters
