I love a story about a woman with Chronic pain who finds a way to find love and love life even with the pain.
Mickey is trying to live her life with as little interruption as possible to be able to afford her meds; she gets a part-time job
there are a few problems
1. she loves it
2. her boss is in her part-time class
3. she has feelings for her boss
The book is fun! I laughed out loud a lot and enjoyed the whole romance. Diego is a widow, and he is running his wife's bar the best he can
This is a good one.

I absolutely loved this book like good lord is it good. HAWT. Diego is FILTHY and Mickey is phenomenal and hot and adorable. It’s a perfect grumpy sunshine. And they are OLDER which is always my favorite.

I really enjoyed this story. Our main characters are 32 and 42. He's grumpy, she's sunshine. She is his professor and his employee. He's her student and boss. They don't discover this until after he's hired her.
Diego is a widower who owns a local bar called The Saloon, He ran the bar with his wife and has been grieving her fore years. Mickey is an adjunct professor at a local college. She has a chronic condition and gets a part time job at The Saloon.
Not a lot of angst or drama, just a good love story. I listened to the audiobook. The narrator did a great job except for the love scenes.
