Such a fun novella! April falls into her neighbor's pond trying to retrieve her pet swan, and her dashing neighbor Leo rescues her and they have sex in his bathtub pretty much immediately. Their banter and dynamic was so playful and wonderful - it was a delight to see the inherent silliness of sex on-page (the sexiness is there too), and it's nice to see characters who don't take themselves too seriously, even if they have serious pursuits and passions outside of the relationship.
The swans are not as big a plot point as the description makes them sound, which for me was a plus. I don't especially care about birds, except the barn swallows I can see out my front window, which I am surprisingly SUPER invested in. There's four baby birds! They are HUNGRY MOM.
