3.75/5 stars
2/5 spice
Friends to lovers in a workplace setting, this cozy romance had a lot of cute moments and surprised me with the spice.
Tropes:
Friends to lovers
Opposites attract
Work together
Forced proximity
Big family
Chinese rep
Filipino rep
Dual POV
This book had a good pace and didn't drag the romance for too long. Cadence and Matt had great chemistry and banter. They were both ambitious and supported each other in their career goals. The only thing I didn't like was the secrecy and miscommunication. But with how things ended up, I was satisfied in the end.
The spice surprised me... I don't know why I expected a fade to black, but this had some juicy moments. So overall, this was a cozy and quick story. I listened to the audiobook and really enjoyed both narrators. Highly recommend for fans of workplace romances and big family dynamics.
Trigger/Content warnings:
Death of parent, grief, miscommunication, sexual content
