This was a hard one to read and to rate, and still I kind of loved it?? Grumpy, bipolar Ash + sunshine glitter pirate Darian.

This book really showcased a difficult, and messy, and real relationship. I struggled a bit with the phonetically written Essex accent and there is some heavy subject matter. It’s not like any other romance I’ve read.
