Sutton Spencer’s ideas for her life were fairly simple: finish graduate school and fall in love. It would be a lot simpler if she could pinpoint exactly what she should do when she graduates in less than a year. Oh, and if she could figure out how to talk to a woman without feeling like a total mess, that would be great too.
Charlotte Thompson is very much the opposite. She's always had clear steps outlining her path to success with no time or inclination for romance. Her burgeoning career in politics means everything to her and she’s not willing to compromise it for something as insignificant as love. Fleeting, casual, and discreet worked perfectly fine.
When they meet through a dating app, it's immediately clear that they aren't suited for anything more than friendship. Right?

"good things come to those who wait"
Was this a bit too long? Yes, sure. Could it be about 100 pages shorter? Yes. But I would miss the moans, and this 2 beautiful characters sooner. So I don't really mind the 20 hours it took me to listen to this book. Nor I minded the long descriptions and the long conversations.
I loved the way the author touched on the coming out issues, on how this would affect a public person's profile and support. The struggles and how they try to mask or hide their sexuality. BUT! As a Bi person, the fact the Sutton, after realizing she was Bi, went only for women and was locked at home, and didn't know what to do and how to meet someone etc, it was so weird and so out of context... She was bisexual...

Anyhow, chef's kiss to this book and to its author. Off to look out her other books and what I ll read next.
Ps. I am not reading the small novella that came after, I read somewhere it involved kids, and I am sick and tired of the whole "to be a family you need kids" mentality! I' ll leave my Sutton and Charlotte with a romantic love.

It's the first time I read a book this long by my own will and actually stopping reading it because I don't want it to end
I was forced to finish because my free month trial of kindle unlimited ended today
One of the best lesfic novels I've ever read/listened to. The characters are so well developed and their emotions are palpable. For the audiobook, Lori Prince does such a fantastic job of bringing the words to life. I can't recommend this book enough.
