These boys loved each other SO much before they ever realized they were in love. And I adore a friends to lovers story when the author can really sell their backstory/friendship and Sonora Reyes does a great job with that here.
This has some really great things:
- Marriage of convenience for citizenship, featuring childhood best friends. (Of course I'll marry you. I'd do anything for you, bro.)
- How is anyone going to find this plan of ours believable if we don't practice kissing first?
- Joke's on you guys, everyone else already knew you were in love.
- Queer awakening
- Autism and executive dysfunction rep
I do think the final 25% of this book struggled a little in terms of story progression. There are a lot of external factors at play in Han and Kenny's story and it was a lot to try and wrap up without feeling like we were rushing through it all.
But oh, that final chapter and epilogue just warmed my heart so thoroughly 🥹💕
