I could not put this book down. Taryn Mitsuko has crafted something rare: characters so sharp and alive that their banter crackles off the page, tangled up in conflict that's both larger-than-life and painfully real. This isn't just a fun read, it's an experience.
And let's talk about the romance for a second, because it is steamy!!! The tension between these two characters builds with every chapter until it finally boils over, and when it does, it's every bit as satisfying as you're hoping for. Mitsuko knows exactly how to make you ache for a couple to just get together already.
I laughed. I cried. I fanned myself more than once. Then I laughed again. This book has it all, wit, heart, and a slow-burn romance that pays off in the best way. I'm already counting down the days until Taryn Mitsuko's next release.
5 stars. Read this book.
