Can't Escape Love

Super low-conflict friends-to-lovers romance, works better if you've just read A Duke by Default, because a lot of the main character's family conflict is detailed and resolved in that book (which stars her sister). I like Reggie a lot but I felt like Gus could use more development. This is still a lot of fun, but read as a companion piece to Book #2.

*4.5 stars

Puzzles, nerdery ahoy, online friendship that blossoms into more, autistic mc, fabulous heroine who takes no shit, great chemistry, a couple who actually communicates...was this book written for me???

My only complaint is that it was a novella and thus by default moved too quickly for my tastes. I really wanted to delve deeper Gus and Reggie's relationship, as well as the characters themselves. But it was still terrific, and I'm very glad I didn't skip it (like I do most novellas).

Note: I listened to the audiobook, and the narrator was fantastic!

Also, 10/10 would watch that anime.
