Lily Morton pens another captivating and wonderfully delightful romantic comedy, one that will put a smile on your face and tug on your heartstrings too. The characters are relatable and easy to care about and even fall for. Jonas Durand owns and runs a model agency and is good at what he does. He is successful and respected by others in the industry and the models like working for his company. But he is a diehard worker and is always on the run, taking little time for himself. Then Dean Michaels works his way into his life, and what started out as having a soft spot for Dean, one of his top models, morphs into more. There was so much more to Dean than meets the eye, and not only does Jonas see him and who he is as a person, but Dean sees Jonas too. I loved watching these two dance around each other while getting more acquainted with one and another. Each dealt with their own inner demons but they brought out the best of each other and then some. This beautifully written and plotted has the perfect balance of drama, charming humor and witty dialogue, heartfelt emotions and a slow burn but oh so fabulous romance. The layers of the story and the complexity of the characters are fantastic, as is the world building. What an amazing start to a new series and I am looking forward to what and who comes next. Lily Morton, thank you for another fabulous story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
