It was a nice change of pace to read a book that was a "start again romance" for a woman who wasn't mid 20's. The fact that Thea was 45 and Edward 47 was refreshing. She was blunt and realistic, sometimes to a fault, but so open to friendships. She was refreshing with just wanting honesty in her life after the divorce. Edward was odd beyond belief but also just the perfect counterpart to Thea. Overall, a cute read and loved that the characters were in their 40s.
