This was such a sweet romance! It had me giggling and kicking my feet so many times. I really enjoy when a fat character is appreciated for their beauty in a non-fetishy way. I also love when a MMC is a huge simp for his girl and that was definitely the case here.
This book had fibromyalgia representation- I can’t say whether it was good or not since I don’t have fibromyalgia but what I will say is that it is always so refreshing to see a disabled main character framed as desirable and capable. Chloe’s illness obviously had a huge impact on her life and her relationships, and this impact was not minimised but it also wasn’t the defining thing about her.
I didn’t love the audiobook narration for this one - the story was good enough for me to push through but I think it would have been so much better with two narrators rather than just the one.
