This was a short, sweet sapphic romance novella about two best friends who have been in love with each other for a LONG time. Both too afraid to name their feelings out loud for fear of losing the most important person in their life. Amelia is about to open her own business, a wine bar in a quaint little town. Her best friend, Hadley, an avid traveler who never stays in one place for long, is coming to visit and help out with the opening. Their connection and love for each other is evident from the start. And whatever is going on between them is far from platonic... They share several deeply intimate moments together. And there were countless times throughout when I wanted to reach into my iPad and shake some sense into them! These two clearly belong together.

I loved the representation with Amelia as a demisexual person and the conversation she and Hadley had around sex. It was vulnerable and honest and showed how deep their connection was. Amelia also has fibromyalgia and I thought Halli did a great job showing how this illness impacts her daily life. It was also very endearing to see how Hadley cared for her and knew exactly what to do to help. Amelia’s and Hadley’s love for each other was truly palpable and leapt off the pages.

The dual POV was hard to follow at times because of how similar the two characters sounded. I often had to look back to figure out whose POV I was hearing. But I loved that we got to hear the story from both sides and experience the mutual pining and love they had for each other.

There’s also a super cute Maine Coon cat named Mr. Buttons, and Hadley made vests for him (and other animals) which was completely adorable.

If you enjoy low angst, friends-to-lovers sapphic romance, then this book is for you! It’s a quick and easy read, full of heart and hope. These two will definitely frustrate you at times, but you will be rooting for them every step of the way!

I received an ARC from the author and this is my honest and voluntary review.
