I loved the Hollywood setting & the dynamic between Win and Leo as they managed a tabloid dating relationship. Win and Leo are both well-developed characters who you easily become attached to. I really liked Win and found myself getting emotional in moments when she was facing tough circumstances. There are plenty of raw, vulnerable moments in this book as it navigates through racism, family dynamics, and betrayal. It's an excellent read.
