I really liked this one! This has a lot of god tropes: grumpy x sunshine, workplace romance, enemies to friends to lovers, touch her and you die, age gap. The list goes on. Slow burn though which isn’t my favorite, but only Mariana could make me read a ~500+ page book where I wait until about 90% in for them to bang.

i really liked this! i've been in a reading slump, so it wasn't easy for me to be captured in a book, but from the very first page i fell in love with luna. i'll admit, at some point of the book her romance with rip felt like a subplot and i was fine with it. one thing about mz is that her characters inner dialogues are amazing. im always highlighting a lot of things and i loved luna and i learned a lot of thing from the way she views life. i related a lot to her so seeing the way she copes with things felt very familiar.
rip... wasn't my fav mz man but also wasn't the worst. at first i was just okay with him because he just felt like the usual grumpy man that says two words (im not hating, that's literally my fav trope). until half in the book when his character really develops. he really won me over, im not gonna lie!
family dynamics are SO complex and not everything is black and white. this did a really great job highlighting that.
luna my beloved i'd go to war for you <3
