Intimacy Coordinators have always fascinated me within TV and Film and I loved that the romance involved someone in that role in the film industry. I loved the interactions between Tash and Caleb and found myself really rooting for their development. It was a lighthearted and sweet read while sensitively dealing with aspects of sexuality and femininity within films.

Tash is the author of The Colony - a feminist dystopian novel being turned into a TV show - forced to work with Hollywood hot shot intimacy coordinator, Caleb. She resents him and the studio, believing they are trying to over-sexualise her precious story, but she has no choice but to continue working with Caleb to stage those scenes and meet the studios deadline.

This was a really interesting plot. I went in to this expecting lighthearted and fun, and while this is a very enjoyable read, the subject matter takes a very interesting exploration of women’s sexuality and gender dynamics in Hollywood.
This portrayed these themes in a way that was still fun and digestible and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it!
