Ella Gets the D

I saw on TikTok that there were free downloads by Black authors and one of the options was Miles Apart by Tanvier Peart. Since she’ll be at Black Romance Fest this year, I decided to download her catalog and started with Ella Gets the D.

Not gonna lie, the book was lowkey too long but I enjoyed the story. I definitely want to read the rest of her catalog. 3.5/5 stars for this one.
