This was promoted as rom-com but this is dealing with some heavy stuff. I liked friends dynamic but everything else....ending was super rushed too.

Here we have an older woman who is starting a new life and to initiate this her friends convince her to step out of her comfort zone and enjoy a night out but at the last minute, due to an emergency, they both bailed. But before she could call it quits and heads home she has an exchange with a guy at the bar which leads to a conversation which leads to an amazing night. Of course, as romance stories often do, turns out this stranger is going to be tightly entwined in her life for awhile and complications plus some feelings arise.
Please be aware TW for DA as a topic of this book. Admittedly I wasn't aware of that so I was a little surprised and thrown off when a big part of the story/background was around that concept.
I really enjoyed that the characters were older, I liked their chemistry and aside from a few meh things I overall had a good time. Some things were a little annoying but I still ended up really liking it.

4 stars, maybe even 4.5 stars.
I really enjoyed this book. I loved the characters and the writing and the story she told was great too. I especially loved Jake and how kind and patient he was with Naya. Their connection was so wonderful with tons of chemistry and I loved reading about them. I also found myself laughing out loud at the interactions between the characters and especially between Jake and Naya.
I flew through this book in about 24 hours. I couldn’t put it down. Definitely can’t wait to pick up the authors next book.
Such a good book.
