A Lot Like Adios

A Lot Like Adios by Alexis Daria, 402 pages

After building a successful personal training gym in L.A., Gabe is preparing to open a new gym in New York City, though he's a bit hesitant to return to his hometown after an awkward split from his family years earlier. Complicating matters is the fact that Gabe's business partner has hired a NYC-based marketing guru named Michelle to handle branding and marketing the new gym...and it just so happens that she's the former best friend and longtime crush that Gabe left behind when he went to California. Can Gabe and Michelle manage their past and mend bridges with Gabe's family while still getting the new gym off the ground?

There's something satisfying about a second-chance romance, and this one certainly fits the bill. It's steamy and sexy, but also very real and funny, and I love the representation of Latinx culture. Daria keeps knocking it out of the park, and I LOVE IT!
