Thank you to Victory Editing Co-op and Netgalley for providing me with an e-ARC to read and review. Oh my god, if I could give this book all the stars, I would. Ziggy and Sebastian were incredibly delightful. There was so many heartfelt moments and I swear I was swooning for most of this book. I loved the slow burn in this case as it really helped the two of them grow close and get to know each other. Their transition into real friends and eventually into lovers was beautiful and I loved the cameos from the other Bergman couples. The bookstore scene was so so so good and I loved so many things with this story. There was a really fantastic moment with Seb and Viggo and it only makes me more excited (but also sad) for the final Bergman to have their love story. I loved the care that was put into the autistic rep as well as the celiac disease and different sexual identities. Liese always does representation so well and her love stories are truly some of my favorites. This made me laugh and honestly tear up a bit and I truly adored Ziggy's moment to shine!
