I really enjoyed this story, and Ella’s connection to Sade Adu. First, I love our FMC’s name, Elladie. That is beautiful. I hated that she had to go through such a public fiasco with her divorce and how Ariel touches on how women get treated in real life and the media when it comes to infidelity. I liked how Miles made her feel, like having a crush again for the first time but she really didn’t know how to navigate her feelings after being married to the first man she loved. I LOVED how the lawyer touched on grooming and different kinds of abuse briefly. Great Easter egg. I loved the convos with her friends, and how real that she could be with them and Miles. This was a cute, fun romance with some well written fade to black spicy scenes. If you’re looking for spice this is not for you but it’s a sweet story nonetheless.
