As a sapphic story I enjoyed it. As a story about doing, being, chasing what makes you happy, I loved it. I just don’t understand how we got here. I think for me things would have made more sense if it was made clear that while she still loved Mason she no longer wanted to be with men. She kept saying bisexual and I didn’t feel like there was room to make that interpretation that she no longer wanted to be with him, because of things expressed in the story. For me I never felt like I understood the why and knowing it left Mason hurting, who was written to be a really great character, it took away my ability to be fully invested in and root for the mains. It is also a book set during Christmas but it was lacking in the Christmas activities department which always bums me out a little. I loved the spicy in the book and the detailed and sensual descriptions but overall it isn’t a fav for me, from this author.
