I recieved a free ALC of this book as a gift from the author.

"Sometimes superheroes don't give a fuck about the world. Sometimes, they just want the girl."

I have read the majority of Elizabeth Stephens blacklist at this point and adored all of them, so it was no surprise I loved this book too. I just really get on with the way she writes romantic relationships; MMCs who are gone from minute one, absolutely obsessed with their FMCs and FMCs who are each strong in their own unique way. Roland, or Rollo, is probably my favourite MMC from recent memory; I actually swooned at almost everything he said. Vanessa was wonderful too, and reminded me so much of myself which greatly helped my enjoyment of this book. She was socially anxious and panicky, but still so smart and strong in other ways. I've never read or thought I would like a superhero book before, but this one was definitely worth the read.
I also loved the found family aspect of this book, and the effortless way the author incorporated such stunning diversity. All other authors should be taking notes; it really isn't that hard.

As for sex/smut/spice, I'm not sure why I've seen so much about this book being majority that as there were actually so few scenes. One partial set scene (no P-in-V, but other things) at 55% and nothing else but a few mentions of oral until after the 85% mark where there were only 2 full sex scenes through the rest of the book.

TW/CW: mentions and memories of verbal and physical child abuse by parents, PTSD and anxiety experienced on-page, mentions of transphobia, mentions of death, kidnapping, mentions of foster care and adoption, arson, light CNC and somnophilia kink (consensually explored), light BDSM elements, mentions of guns and gun violence, general violence relating to superheros and supervillains, and other things I may have missed
