One thing I'm definitely grateful for after reading this book is my fucking radiator. I just came back from the basement where I spent some quality time hugging our brand new state of the art heater. I have new respect for the damn thing. 
 Why, might you ask? Well, because these two wonderful characters spent a winter in New York in a small studio apartment with a barely any heat! I get legit cold just thinking about this book. Ok, all jokes aside, though. 
 This, right here, is one of those books that carry a message. Emma Scott's ability to create these wonderful but broken characters is amazing. On one hand they appear very unremarkable but you can't help falling in love with them. This story about 
 "the lonely busboy and the desperate girl with no place to go" 
 touched my heart and is definitely going to stay with me for a long time. It's sweet, romantic, heartwarming and makes me want to do good. 
 At first I thought this book wasn't going to go there. You know? 
 It was just so sweet. And such a slow burn romance. But then BAM. Emma, you surprise me. In a good way. Me likie. 
 Not sure what trope to name here. I suppose, a second chance at happiness. Both these characters help each other overcome the guilt they feel and ultimately end up finding home in one another. While, of course, at the same time battling with the fucking radiator.
