To be frank, I was looking for a novella, and the blurb for this book left me thinking I would hate it.
I'm not a fan of cheating in books and having that as a trope in my brain made it difficult to enjoy the build up of this novella.
I was wrong. It was good. I'm not upset I listened to this, it was far better than I thought it would be. It was the perfect length as I can't imagine how this story could have been extended into a novel.
For something so short the author really gave the characters full shaping, including the supporting ones. I felt really satisfied after the 90 mins listening to this.

This was a short and sweet novella, but like many short stories it left a lot to be desired (I would've loved for the epilogue to be expounded upon, for example). The love scenes were definitely steamy and the description of the types of men on dating apps made me laugh because it was so relatable LOL. Ultimately, this was a great story to pick up for a bit of escapism!
