That’s a damn good book. I didn’t know what to expect, but the rep is diverse and flawlessly woven in and really good.

It was both informative on bipolar disorder and emotional on many levels. I love the fact that Suzette never gives up on her brother despite everything. It’s not always healthy, but her support and love changes throughout the story without ever questioning whether she has his best interests at heart.

I’m also quite happy with the fact that there’s no cheating. So many bi characters fall into the cheater stereotype, and I’m glad this one doesn’t. There’s no “it just happened” sex either, which was refreshing.

Brandy Colbert writes great stories and I’m looking forward to reading more of her stuff.
