The first 40% of the book set ups their growing friendship and romantic feelings for each other. Their new friendship is complicated even further by the fact that Giuliana is the new maid in Kate’s household and they are from very different social classes. They have an instant attraction, but don’t quite understand their fascination with one another (Though Kate does have an inkling about what’s going on). Kate and Giuliana are both young (early 20’s) and innocent. I haven’t read lesbian romance novel in a while, so when this one popped up on NetGalley, I wanted to read it right away! Thankfully, I got approved and I’m happy to say that I liked this book even more than I was expecting too.
