What a captivating and warm-hearted story. I have had the pleasure of reading Harper Bliss a few times, and each time her stories have brought a smile to my face. Her way of portraying relationships is incredible. And as always, I absolutely fall in love with her characters.

I've been reading myself to death on novels about young adults in their early 20s. This story was right up my alley as the main characters were in their 40s and 50s.

Of course, it could be that my interests have shifted as I've gotten older. Nevertheless, I am glad that there are now so many authors who write about the lives of older queer women and not just about teenagers.

This book is about Ashley "Ash", a hedge fund manager from London, and Gloria, a nurse from Ash's hometown in the country. They meet again after a long time at a family party, as Gloria is an old acquaintance of Ash's parents. There they discuss that they should meet again soon, as soon as Gloria revisits London. Neither of them knows that this next meeting will change everything for them both.

The exciting thing about Ash and Gloria is that they both have a different past and an age difference. But instead of seeing this as a burden, they embrace the differences and grow closer together.

A charming book with two fabulous characters that will warm your heart :) And btw, those CĂ©line Dion references!!!! Loved them.
