⭐ 5/5
🌶️ 3/5
I definitely recommend this one! It's low angst and funny.
📝 This story follows two stand-up comedians who are already close friends/practically family, who then have to start fake dating (which of course turns real pretty quickly). He is kinda famous but has been out of the spotlight for years, and she's an up-and-coming comic. They both have their own issues to work through, which makes things harder. And the MMC has a daughter who already adores FMC so they don't want to mess that up either. There are some professional and personal speed bumps that the couple have to overcome.
🎧 I really liked both narrators in this! Nelson Hobbs and Stephanie Bentley. Dual POV.
🌶️ There were a handful of explicit scenes, and many references to more activities off page.
🏳️🌈✊ Disability rep: MMC's daughter is Deaf and she is a huge part of both of their lives so she's woven in throughout the book. I didn't notice much in the way of racial, cultural, or lgbtqia+ diversity.
