Kind of was expecting a bit more steam in this one. Enjoyed the relationship between former sex worker turned inspirational speaker heroine and Rabbi hero. Very sex positive, explored religion in a healthy way, had a rom-com vibe.

Corbin and Alex stan. Very cute for the holidays and loved the Jewish representation. Surprisingly steamy even though it's a wholesome story. Loving all things Roan Parrish!

2.5 stars - Wish this was a bit longer! I wanted more flashbacks to get a bit more background on the characters.

3.5 stars. I really enjoyed this! Definitely understood how the hero handled things with having pretty intense anxiety along with probably some PTSD and definite trust issues. I LOVED the telenovela aspect, and the jumping between scenes with the characters along with the heroine and hero. I was actually expecting a lot more angst and drama, but this had a lot of good communication, a great intimacy coordinator, and a lot of feminism and Latinx visibility. Very cool, and a solid listen!

I am 50% through this and do not care whatsoever about the plot or characters, unfortunately.

First Talia Hibbert book that has let me down.

Dutch Prince flying under the radar gets into a situation with the heroine and they start fake dating, with her not really having a say in it. So far, pretty meh.

3.5 stars

Fun Schitt's Creek retelling. First Tessa Bailey I haven't dnfed, so that's neat. I appreciate a groveling hero does not want to change a thing about the heroine. Nice.
