J. Sterling's characters feel so realistic they have incredible back and forth banter and you can't help but fall in love with both of them. But the way she wrote one particular traumatic experience for the FMC, and the devestating conflicts between the two protagonists had me weeping to the point where I had to take breaks from the booth. This experience was so moving and I'm so grateful to have had the change to pour my heart and soul into this character!
