Love Anita Kelly's writing. This continues to provide tremendous lgbtqia+ rep along with providing a sweet heart warming story. As I read this series out of order, it was great finally getting to read about London and Dahlia's budding romance.

As an ace person, reading romance novels can be weird because it's hard to identify with or understand different experiences and feelings.

like when someone turns you on so much you want to lick the scar on their hand or having any desire to have someone's toes in your mouth.

So naturally there were some parts of this story that felt so unnatural to me though I imagine others would find them equally natural. 

I do like the story though. And I appreciate that both the characters had their own insecurities to work through, goals to discover and work towards, and relationship challenges both inside and outside the romantic relationship to overcome. I did feel like the some aspects were too rushed. But overall it was good
