I absolutely adored him for it! 😍 My heart also went out to him hearing about how his family treated him and when we learn the reasons why he’s always so happy-go-lucky, and why he started wearing bow ties. Oh, Aiden! This guy was such a giant ball of sunshine and corny positivity and although I don’t know how I’d react to meeting a guy like that IRL, it was hard to not feel happy whenever he appeared on the page. And when she meets Aiden standing in front of the Vivant window displays, she has no idea that her life is about to change, and most definitely for the better! I was a little worried that she wouldn’t stand up for herself when it came to her toxic friendship but I happily cheered her on when she did it! She was such a great heroine and so easy to root for. I really admired her strength and the way she held her head up high when people judged her too quickly and treated her like shit because of her past, and it was heartwarming to see her pursue her passion and also succeed hard. She’s kinda prickly and stand-offish but underneath that grumpy exterior, she has a good heart, and she’s determined to make a better life for herself while figuring out who she is now that she’s “free”, in more ways than one. Stella is an ex-convict who has had an incredibly toxic and damaging relationship with her childhood best friend, and she’s still coming to terms with this ‘new life’ now that she’s out of prison. well.TL DR: This reverse grumpy-sunshine romance was incredibly adorable, delightful, and so full of positive and festive holiday vibes! I think this is also the first romance/book I’ve read that directly references the pandemic, and while it was admittedly a little jarring to see things being so ‘normal’ when it’s still so not normal (and the pandemic so far from over) IRL, it was also nice and hopeful! I loved Stella and Aiden and despite the insta-love moments of their romance, I was sold on their connection and sizzling chemistry and they more than deserved their HEA! There's a clause in the Employee Handbook that says employees cannot fraternize with management.Īnd when Katara, the luxury department store's window dresser, finds herself locked in the window display and only Zuko, the store's general manager, answers to her rescue. oh god so much dirty talk i need to touch grass.
