Asa is my chaotic soft bi king and I would die for him!!!

Also I loved this book. There were so many tropes (although there were also several cliches that usually make me mad, but I liked this book so I much I mostly overlooked them)

This is a great example of a romance that does MORE. It handles some pretty heavy, real stuff, but does it well. I liked Asa and Lauren and was rooting for them all along the way

4.5 stars for Asa, Lauren, and everything about their rivals to lovers arc. Love a bi main character, and especially love a bi male main character. Also, as a former CASA (known as guardians ad litem in Florida), I loved how realistic and well-done Lauren's volunteer work storyline was.

Important to note foster care plays a huge role in this book. CW for foster care and the family court system.

Took me less than 24 hours to read this whole book because I couldn’t put it down and I didn’t want to. Loved it. 💕

Absolutely lovely! The romance was adorable and well-written, complete with solid communication, fantastic character development, and even (mostly) lovable side characters. I flew through this one, and I can honestly say I'll keep reading Alicia Thompson's romances.
