You & Me
Tal Bauer is a new read to me, but I’ve seen his name and this book, You & Me, a lot around KU and MM reader groups. Given the shower of positive responses, I decided to pick this up. Based on the excerpt, I thought I was in for a light and cozy read. Well, it wasn’t exactly light, but it was cozy and warm and full of love. So much love.
