Personal take:
Lily is adorable. I love how awkward she can be. I feel like I relate to that so much. I love her love for books and I love that she put her all into the path towards the career she wanted instead of folding into a career that she would make her unhappy.
Nick is so charming. I love how he overcomes a lot of his traumas and fights to be the best version of himself that he can be for himself and the people he cares for.
Their chemistry is undeniable and I love how they find comfort in one another’s company no matter the distance. They just nerd out together and it’s so cute.🥰
2.) The partner plot : Two former high school sweethearts get a second chance in this marriage of convenience romance
Personal take:
I love Violet! She is such a boss and I love that she knows who she is, what she loves and who she loves. She’s strong, independent and self assured and funny.
Xavier is ughh😩🥰 he’s loving, protective and understanding. His drive for his community is beautiful and I love how his presence impacts everyone around him.
Their spark is something serious and their dynamic is hilarious and electrifying. I love how they bring out the spontaneity in each other. It’s such a good read. Had me giggling throughout the whole book.
