This was a fun forbidden romance with a larger focus on character growth. I loved watching Ruthie blossom, but the real heroes of this book are the Parlonis. Focusing on a pair of eccentric octogenarians who enjoy hazing their personal assistant was pure genius. This book is fairly light on the steam, but I didn't mind because the plot really drew me in.
