Nisha J. Tuli’s contemporary romance debut was equal parts humorous, heartfelt, and hawttt!!

Trishara (Tris) was our main character and being inside her head was such a wild ride. I felt truly immersed in the story from her perspective.

Rafe was the love interest and he definitely checks all the boxes for a swoon worthy hero. The banter and chemistry between him and Tris was one of my favorite parts.

And the setting!! Give me a book set in Hawaii any day. Coupled with the retreat style plot line, only one room/bed, and the sizzling banter… I ate this right up. On top of all that, Nisha J. Tuli tackled sexism and racism in the workplace so well and has added her book to the growing list of women in STEM romance novels.

If I were to critique anything it’d be about the other woman drama (OWD). It felt a bit old after a while and the constant back and forth between Tris and Rafe about it grew tiresome. Tris at times was a bit frustrating but all in all the end result was worth all the rough patches.

Thanks so much to Forever Pub and Netgalley for the eARC!
