I loved this book. Andrew Flewitt's work is a container for so many feelings that can be hard to navigate. He shares enough of his story to keep me firmly alongside him while giving space to queer voices that might otherwise not be heard. Each of the stories illustrates a facet of loss, sometimes in unexpected ways and always with great care. The book makes me believe not just that there is life after loss, but that we might even be able to thrive beyond it. Thank you for this thoughtful, considered and moving examination of a topic every one of us encounters but too few of us talk about so openly.

This book offers a breezy, heartwarming escape, filled with witty banter, endearing mishaps, and just enough chemistry to keep the pages turning. The love interest is suitably charming, with enough depth to make their dynamic engaging, even if some of their conflicts feel a bit predictable.

While the book excels in humor and sweet moments, the protagonist’s personal growth occasionally takes a backseat to the romantic plot. A deeper exploration of their emotional journey could have added more weight to their happily-ever-after.

That said, the supporting cast adds plenty of fun, and the romantic tension is well-paced, making it easy to root for the central couple. The writing is light and engaging, perfect for readers looking for a feel-good story with a few laughs along the way. If you don’t mind a little predictability and enjoy banter-filled romance, this book is a charming pick—just don’t expect too much introspection between the meet-cutes and grand gestures.
