The badness of the title of this book stopped me from reading it for months but I'm glad I finally did because it is genuinely very good!! There's so much to love here - kismet meetings, chemistry, yearning, mixing business and pleasure, hotnsex scenes, art lesbians coming together to form a collective and support each other's aspirations! 
I think the thing I liked most was the resolution. Cora didn't get to make a grand gesture and have all her sins forgiven, and Manuela had to learn to live by her values and stand on her own two feet. Overall I really enjoyed this book and strongly recommend it!
