This book is beautiful.
It’s fun, it’s spicy, it’ll make you laugh and cry.
But at it’s core it’s a testament to love in a deeper, realer way than just about any romance book I’ve ever read.
Aiden and Freya love each other, truly, deeply, but they are human and they are flawed. Watching them put in the effort to learn to love each other better, to not just return to what they used to be, but to become something <i>more</i> than that is simply beautiful, and Chloe Liese captures it so well.
I teared up reading this book so many times. Both Aiden and Freya’s emotions are raw and visceral, as if their hurt and confusion and love are bleeding off the pages. Their characters are real, three dimensional, and so easy to connect with and love. They’re also fiesty, witty, and their banter had be laughing as much as I was crying. Liese balances a lighthearted romcom with deep, emotional storylines and development masterfully. This is a book I know that I will keep coming back to, the kind of story and characters that linger in your mind and heart long after the final page. This is Chloe Liese at her best, and I cannot recommend it more.
