I got a copy of this audiobook from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.
Okay. So let me explain a few things. When I am on Net Galley, the first thing that grabs me about a book is the cover. Especially if it is by an unfamiliar author. That will cause me to read the description. That is how I decide if I want to read it or not.
The cover for this book was so colorful and I could kinda tell it was two women. The name of the author got me thinking that it would be women of color. Then I was intrigued by the description.
I am so glad that I read this book. Angela had never been kissed. She has a crush on Krystal, her favorite bartender. Somehow Krystal offers to help her with her idea of having a scavenger hunt where the winner will get to be her first kiss.
Angela identifies as an asexual lesbian. I loved the way this book paid attention to how asexuality is a spectrum. I loved how Angela dealt with her labels changing. I loved the fact that she was able to see that she had a strong found family as well as a few supportive members of her biological family.
Angela and Krystal had chemistry. It was very clear to me, as the reader, that they were not going to remain just friends. It was enjoyable watching their romance grow all while Angela is supposed to be putting together this scavenger hunt.
I really enjoyed this book. It was everything I wanted an asexual romance novel to be.
5 star read ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
