4.75⭐️ - An adorable, neurodiverse, and spicy winter romance with old affection flickering into a cosy fire!
Clara and Evan have been friends for most of their lives, even if they've not always been in the same city. Thankfully, they are now, because when Clara starts a new job with her dream mentor and inadvertently makes her think she's got a girlfriend, Evan is the perfect person to talk to about it. The problem is, Clara is single.. and also regrettably straight, or at least so she's always thought. As it turns out, Evan has a staff party hosted by her toxic ex- to go to and Clara would be an excellent date for that, so the two agree to fake-date in order to help both their situations. Evan just has to try not to focus on the fact that she's always been attracted to her friend.. and definitely not think about how much she wants to kiss her.
Utterly adorable, a totally affirming little Christmas snack with all of Hannah Bonam-Young's flare for representation. With Clara having ADHD and Evan being autistic, we get two really great perspectives into both of their internal experiences. As an AuDHDer, it felt really authentically handled, especially in terms of Evan's hyper-sensitivity to touch and sometimes getting overwhelmed, and Clara's over-explaining. The way they both understood each other and accommodated every part? Made me so happy to read.
