I’m gonna be honest and say I loved this book I loved the dual POV it helps a ton with those of us who may have rejection sensitivity. I love enemies to lovers. I love men pining and groveling. But I took a full star off because there is a page and a conversation that is not a necessary conversation, it doesn’t drive the plot in any way that very much sent my h0m0phobia alarm bells off.
