This was a super cute sapphic romance which I devoured in one sitting. I loved the characters, the plot and the romance

A sweet and spicy read! I really liked that this was a story about moving home, what gentrification and progress mean for a community, and figuring out who you want to be as an adult in your hometown. It’s also a romance where you see the couple dating for the majority of the book which has its pluses and minuses.

Aiko and Summer are both really interesting characters (though I found Summer to be frustrating at times!) and was glad we got dual POV to better understand their perspectives.

The story is a bit slow to start and I found some of the dialogue to be stilted at times. I also wish we got to see a little bit more of their attraction grow rather than it being so quick from the reconnection. But overall I enjoyed it!

What an amazing book!
The book is super exciting and would love to read more from the author!
