Valdin is still in love with his ex-boyfriend Xabi, who left the country because he thought he was making Valdin sad. Greta is in love with fellow English tutor Holly, who only seems to be using her for admin support. But perhaps all is not lost. Valdin is coming to realize that he might not be so unlovable, and Greta, that she might be worth more than the papers she can mark.

Helping the siblings navigate queerness, multiracial identity, and the tendency of their love interests to either leave the country or not love them back, is the whole Vladisavljevic family: Maori-Russian-Catalonian, and as passionate and loving as they are eccentric and over-emotional.

My Thoughts:

This is a story of love and family. Greta and Valdin are siblings who each have their own personal lives. They have a big family and to help navigate the big wide world, their family is on hand to show them the way. I think everyone is going to love both of these siblings and I just loved the whole family as one. It was heart warming to see what the family do in the situations that Greta and Valdin get themselves up to. It was a great story to encounter and I look forward to more of Rebecca’s books

I received an ARC copy of this book for an honest review.
