I have been sleeping on this quirky adult rom-com for far too long because I freaking adored this.

Is the premise rather out there with some wacky characters that you can’t help but become endeared to? Yeppers.

Leon was a fucking dreamboat.

Watching Tiffy take control of her life in the face of a freshly ended emotionally abusive relationship was so fulfilling.

And all of the supporting cast fit their roles to a T.

I even dipped my toe into the audiobook near the end and then had to go back and listen to parts that I had already read because the narrators were that good.

This hit me in all the feel-good places that I needed it to when I picked it up, so if you want a mood-boost read of the romance variety this is a perfect choice.

An enjoyable read. I really liked the characters and their relationship. The scenario was interesting, but there were several moments which were quite contrived and teenage me would have loved, but adult me found myself rolling my eyes! There was also a misunderstanding that could have been cleared up with a simple conversation as the final plot point to be resolved (a trope I find lazy and frustrating!) but it was a lovely read and I will read more by the author. I thought he exploration of an emotionally coercive relationship and the resulting PTSD was really well written.
