When She's Wary by Ruby Dixon
4.0
emotional lighthearted medium-paced

I always enjoy a little Risdaverse series novella. They’re cute, they’re weird, and they always take such a close and immediate approach to the emotions of the story.

I really enjoyed the slow acts of service plus gift giving love language courtship that went on in this book. It was so dang heartwarming!

But.. hear me out: I wish this had been a slow burn novel 😅 It was novella sized (with the frequency of smüt we typically get in this series), but we had a “Six Months Later..” time jump during the part where these two MCs were hanging out almost daily but taking it slow. Which means we skipped over so much flirty-flirty times, my favourite part!

Still super cute, though!
