Marriage of convenience with two genuinely good and earnest people with lots of secrets and unrequited desires?! This was so good, I flew through it. The tension between these two at the halfway point gave me the chest-achey feeling I crave, and the explosion in their slow-burning lust was just delicious. This fizzled for me a bit at the end - the declarations and conflict resolution just felt a little too tidy? But a small quibble for a book I inhaled.
Moderate: Sexual content and Kidnapping
