This was a really sweet read! I was worried with some of the more negative reviews that I wouldn't like this one but I really liked this. It was very slow, so I can definitely see why some people couldn't get into this. I love a slow burn romance, especially when it's LGBTQ, I just feel like you really get to know the characters and their feelings before any romance begins. I also love the longing that slow burns provide and how every touch means something. I do wish there was a bit more chemistry between them earlier on but other than that this was really sweet. I really liked Jo and the topics about women in the workplace. I also see this as more of a workplace drama fiction with a touch of romance than just a romance. So don't go into this thinking it will be a rom com.
