What a great hurt/comfort book with on-page struggles, minimal relationship angst, and a strong found family theme.

I'm so happy I read this book because it was swoony and full of romance. I was specifically looking for a book with a main character who struggles with mental health on page, and this one definitely delivered. These two were meant to be together. There's quite a bit of spice, and while I sometimes struggled with the kinks and dynamics they had (they're not even 21 and already practicing certain kinks?), I could brush that off because they were smoking hot together.

There's a small other-woman drama, but nothing too angsty or significant. By 25%, everything is dealt with.

The found family aspect was well done and believable. Most characters exist independently of the main characters, which makes them all feel more realistic.

The music industry side kept the story interesting. It's more present in the later part of the book and definitely sets up a conflict for the next book.

I struggled with the pacing in the last 30%, and the last quarter had quite a few typos and other errors.

Even with those issues, I will definitely read the next book.
