Truly, Madly, Deeply is great for anyone looking for contemporary romance with relatable fears and obstacles, bi representation, and a whole lot of hope. With fun banter and a conversational tone, it's super readable, and I especially love the way Alexandria Bellefleur writes spice with ✨enthusiastic consent✨—she is really the gold standard. Maybe some of the banter went a bit too far (
I hated the way Truly's dad spoke to her and Colin about their sex lives...it gave me the creeps for a father to be that inappropriate in the name of banter
), but I'm willing to forgive it because 99% of it was character-appropriate, witty, and lighthearted.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing my ARC in exchange for an honest review.
