Thank you to Netgalley and Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Griffin for this Audio Arc. 

This book opens with a panic attack and has themes of Mental health and illnesses.
Heavy trigger warnings for PTSD, Anxiety disorders and panic attacks, self harm.


Aja, a young social media manager, who has just moved to the small town of Greenbelt  meets the man of her dreams in the local supermarket in the midst of a panic attack. 
This dreamy man, Walker Abbot, has just returned to Greenbelt to help with his grandmother after a minor accident. After a heated bingo game Aja and Walker decide to go into a hasty bingo sex pack - Because that would be better than admitting there could be more than just sexual attraction. 

I love that this romance book focuses on the two people individually, their families, friendships and health then puts them together. AND THEY COMMUNICATE! 
Walker deals with his childhood trauma and relationships with his hometown, father and grandmother.
Aja works with her social anxiety by making friends in a new town and looking for a fresh start.
 
This book is HOT  🔥 🥵  , I never knew bingo could be sexy!? A bingo sex pact, thats definely how I’m going to recommend this book. The banter, the relationship, friendships!? I loved every bit of it.
