4.5
The only reason this book is a 4/4.5 rating is because I wasn’t a fan of how the dialogue was written in Leon’s sections of the book.
I’ve heard people rave about this book so wanted to pick it up. Originally I started on audio but then my Alexa app refused to work so I read it physically instead and I still flew through it!
It all starts when Tiffy needs somewhere to live, so ends up sharing a flat with someone she’s never met. He works nights, she works in the day, so they share a bed but don’t literally share the bed.
It was a really interesting concept to the romance genre.
Tiffy’s friends can be a little bit cruel in places, and that felt a bit unfair but they do care about her.
There is drama, and I did audible gasp in places, I also laughed out loud too. I really like it when a book makes me react like that, it shows that the writing is spot on.
I’m definitely going to read more by Beth O’Leary and I’m glad I picked this one up. It’s cute, it’s hopeful and it shows that love can be where you least expect it. Also- Leon is a male nurse! That’s not something you see very often- usually a sexy doctor instead.
Really enjoyed it and would recommend!
4.5/5 stars.
