Thank you to Forever for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. These are my thoughts only.
I loved this book! First of all, such a great sapphic romance. One of my favorite things is that it doesn’t center around the sexy scenes. One of the main characters is experiencing trauma-related sexual dysfunction and Karelia does such a great job of navigating that and making the character feel respected by the love interest. There is just so much respect and consent between the two main characters.
I really enjoyed the plot of following them as they try to get a movie funded. It was cool to see the behind the scenes (see what I did there ;)) stuff of what it takes to pitch a movie.
I got a little emotional reading this at the end! I got really sucked into the characters’ stories, their families/friends, and their journeys. I really appreciated the supportive side characters in this book. I could just feel the strong bonds and love they all had for each other.
I recommend reading!! It’s got a little bit of humor, adventure, love, and is all around a great story
