 After the mafia book this cozy novella was just what I needed. I was kicking me feet and just having a good ol’ time with it.

Emmy is a wrestling coach and former Olympian winner wrestler. He is fat and the body descriptions were great and just very fat positive. Emmy is Korean and Bi and recently divorced and moved to Texas. He loves to hang out in this book shop and runs into the owner, Jamir.

Jamir is a sexy Black glass wearing man who is also Bi and notices Emmy right away, but even more so when Emmy leaves his copy of Pride and Prejudice in the store. When Emmy returns to pick it up he is caught in a storm and ends up in the home with Jamir.

Jamir is struggling to figure out the direction with his life. Having the bookstore was never his dream, he wanted to be a photographer but he was passed down the bookstore. Emmy is having to battle his ex who now wants him back after leaving him for another guy. I loved the friendship dynamics with Jamir’s friends they had me smiling and laughing. It felt homey and just amazing vibes. I really enjoyed this novella and cannot wait to read more from Georgina.
