When Love Barges In: A sapphic romance novella By Bryony Rosehurst

5 This was short but really enjoyable There s a lot of emotions packed into a small cast of characters and a short book I hadn t heard of this author before but I ll definitely be checking out of her work 148 I m not usually into fluffy romance But this one is super adorable A perfect read for a sunny afternoon 148 When Love Barges In: A sapphic romance novellaThis is the cutest book ever 148 Once again Bryony Rosehurst doesn t disappoint With a perfect combination of cosy and a slight bit of angst we follow Piper a 24yo woman with a very low self confidence and how she opens up to fall in love with Jamie her best friend s sister Coming from the foster system Piper really struggles with trusting anyone can want her for who she is The theme of found family is really strong in that one and there is a beautiful conversation towars the end about it and how important it is to love a person how they need it not how you think they do. Thanks to the author for the ARC this is my honest review 148 I m always really happy to find a book with positive plus size representation I wish there had been of it when I was younger. Huge thanks to the author for providing me with an ebook in exchange for an honest review 148 Another gorgeous read by Bryony Rosehurst As a Northener I loved the location of this one and the romance between Jamie and Piper was both sweet and a little spicy Jamie is officially my new favourite book girlfriend There were some parts of this that really made me emotional too it was lovely to read Easy five stars as usual 148 If I had a nickel for every time I ve finished a Bryony Rosehurst book after 1 AM I d have two nickels Which isn t a lot but it s weird that it happened twice and I can still form some appearance of coherent thoughts My brain is mostly sapphic jelly at the moment but one thing I m positive about is that this author keeps competing with herself when it comes to wlw pining and women who are down bad for one another Piper and Jamie are both astronomically cringefail simps and they re so valid for it Your honour I love them P. S Vanessa and Pearl made me cry several times because mommy issues my therapist will hear about this 148
