Wow, wow wow wow, what an incredible debut novel and one of the best hurt/comfort romances I’ve ever read. Fuck, I gobbled that shit up from page one.
There was so much to love here:
🩵 college setting
🩵 Broken boys who heal together
🩵 car mechanic x children’s book writer
🩵 Possessiveness/protectiveness/co-dependency
🩵 Touch him and literally die
🩵 Size difference
🩵 Touch starved
🩵 Seriously hot steam and so much consent talk *swoon*
🩵 Endless exploration of eachothers bodies
🩵 Praise and ‘baby’
🩵 Unlimited patience and caretaking
🩵 Feeling safe and finding trust
🩵 Healing and going to therapy
🩵 Amazing side characters (WHO HOPEFULLY GET THEIR OWN BOOKS PLEASE!!)
There were a few inconsistencies here and there regarding the characters and how they acted but it was easy to overlook, I thought.
Even though this had some heavy themes (please check the tw beforehand!), I’d say it was fairly low angst and got ridiculously sweet during the end - which I loved, because damn, those two deserved an ott HEA!
I can’t wait to see what Nyla Dane writes next. Maybe Jordan’s story? That would make me so happy! 4,5⭐️

Omg yes, we do all need a Brody in our lives 😩🥹 Ugh, I’m in love.
Whaat?? I didn’t see that at the end! Which couple will it be? I’m hoping for Jordan and Sam 🤞
I don't know, to be honest. I'm not in the mood for a story like this one at the moment, but I might check it out at some point. 🙈😅
