I really enjoyed this book, the romance and the characters throughout! Easily one of my favourites by Olivia Dade.

Some reviews complain about the way the age gap is brought up constantly by Tess, which I can understand, but I felt that it revealed a lot about Tess' self-perception. I also appreciate that it is addressed fairly early on in the book.

I had the biggest grin on my face reading this book, I loved it so much! It was such a great lighthearted story, a perfect one for summer! And I’m so glad to have finally read a book where it’s acknowledged that people have periods. I can’t remember many romance novels where it’s mentioned, and even less where it was handled like in this one!
