Kate Clayborn is such a talented writer and now I've finished all her books and have to wait for more! This book captured the chronically ill experience as well as the flaws of academia and advising, many relatable things for me!

As a chronically ill disabled woman, Kate Clayborn did a fantastic job writing the story of one. She wove in learning about Greer's health so well, and it felt so incredibly natural. Greer was a fleshed-out character whose health and limitations were important, but so were her personality, interests, and dreams. We got little bits of Greer in Kit's and Zoe's book, so I was thrilled to finally get inside her head and understand more about her. Alex was another in a series of well-written men in Clayborn's books that made me wonder if perhaps her husband is just that fantastic! I also imagine she must have a thing for chest hair because all of her Men MCs have chest hair described as the perfect amount!

I loved the side characters and especially Greer's relationship with her family. Their protectiveness and overbearingness were understandable, as was her discomfort with it. I liked that it reached some sort of resolution as Greer learned to express her needs and wants to everyone in her life. This book also dealt with Alex's anxiety and panic attacks so well, showing that while therapy is a resource, it doesn't quickly solve your problem but is instead a tool for understanding yourself. 

Another 5 Star read from Clayborn, I only wish she had a larger back catalog!

Clayborn writes particularly loveable characters and is great at fitting familiar tropes with the specific details of their lives. I really enjoyed Greer and Alex’s story and love to see on-page therapy (and have it be an important part of the plot’s resolution!)
