This was such a good read but so emotional - prepare yourself for tears! One of the main characters is Deaf and the other is a social worker for the Deaf grandmother of the Hero. The author is Hard of Hearing and I felt she did a great job developing characters that are Deaf and Hard of Hearing. I'm not a fan of work/power imbalance scenarios in romance, however I think the way that conflict of interest was handled in this story made it less problematic. This is a shorter book, but it deals with really heavy topics so take care of yourself first before delving in!
