Have you ever had a crush on your babysitter? Taryn Ross sure did. Sixteen-year-old Charlotte was sophisticated, thoughtful, gorgeous, and fun. Taryn counted the minutes until they’d hang out. But Charlotte and her family moved away. Now a transfer student at Hillspoint University, Taryn is ready to officially come out when she runs into a familiar face at a party. Charlie, now a grad student, insists on walking a drunk Taryn home. To the detriment of Taryn’s heart (and libido), Charlie has only grown kinder (and hotter) with time.

Charlie Adler has a five-year plan: finish her MFA without any hiccups, survive a difficult breakup with her ex, and become an acclaimed fiction writer. Easy, right? That is until Taryn shows up at Hillspoint and shakes up her world like a snow globe. This Taryn is different: soulful, brooding, and all grown up. Charlie’s never been attracted to a woman before, and isn’t dating your one-time charge against the rules? If only their toe-curling, mind-dulling, body-aching chemistry would calm the hell down.

This is a read I rerun to again and again. I love that we get quite a bit of time with them being blissfully happy together. And I love that they are each other’s biggest fans. Such an aspirational live.

And I adore Lula Larkin’s narration!

Such a sweet story

Great reading/listening. Voice was actually definitely a great addition to this one. I look forward to another go round.

Love love!

This was cute. The characters are funny and they blend together nicely once their story progresses. The conflict wasn’t as awful as it could’ve been (I hate unnecessary miscommunication tropes) and the ending was cute.

Cutesy Self Discovery and Love
