This book simply wraps all the emotions, attraction and chemistry
between the MCs right from their first meeting around you. And doesn’t let go
till the last word.
An American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter, Bernadette
Thompson, and an improv artist, Stevie Adams – the MCs have unusual jobs indeed
and that is so interesting. Bernadette works with her best friend who is a
psychic, Constance Russo. Constance is deaf, but so is Bernadette’s mother so
that is not an issue for her. What is the problem is that Bernadette, now
almost fifty, has been in love with Constance since high school and allows
Connie to rule her life. Carrying the baggage of unrequited love and of being
the primary caregiver to her mother, Bernie doesn’t allow herself much of a
personal life and has zero love life. Stevie lost her parents in an accident
when she was seven or eight and is carrying some baggage from that. Focussed on
her career, Stevie has her sights set on Saturday Night Live and won’t
allow anything or anyone come in the way to making her dream a reality.
Both the MCs are likeable, but with more brokenness and miles of softness, Bernadette is a tad more appealing. Their interactions,
conversations and chemistry are all wonderfully written.
This book is a truly immersive experience and completely
recommended.
