Honestly this was a very nice short read that had a lot of hot sex scenes and cute fluffy scenes in it mixed in with some emotional angst. It was a very good read tbh.

I could have done with a bit more substance, honestly, the book made vague waves at some serious issues and concerns but was in no way interested with dealing with them, because it was very committed to being a light fluffy romance. Which is fine, but I think I would have preferred it if it hadn’t even dropped hints about those darker concerns and emotions, because I was just left thinking that it would have been much more interesting if the author actually had committed to them.
The main characters fell in love incredibly quickly, as is often the way in romance. I did mostly buy that they liked each other a lot, I wasn’t entirely convinced by the whole thing given that one characters perception of the other seems completely out of step with that character’s perception of themselves, and not in a way I thought was deliberate.
So, recommended if you want a frothy sweet romance, not recommended if you want a romance with more emotional depth.
As a minor note I was also irritated by the fact that the setting is introduced very vaguely as being somewhere in ‘the North of England’ and then absolutely nothing about it as described bears any relation to the North of England in any way, shape, or form.
