(This is a short story/novella. This review is not based on story length but story content as length has very little to do with how much I enjoy a book.)A lovely little story about Gemma and Aaron who see each other for the first time in ten years at a bar because both are there to pick Gemma's drunk brother.Their history is interesting and timeless: Gemma crushed on Aaron, her older brother's best friend. A little harmless flirting was the only hint of attraction between them...until Gemma threw the game changer and everything crashed. Because it didn't matter how hot Aaron thought Gemma was. She was jailbait at fifteen years old to his twenty, a fact he took seriously despite how much he wanted her.I like that they spend the rest of that night together, not in bed but hanging out, going to dinner, talking, getting to know each other adults. I love that they move past their "mutual embarrassment" and realize that the attraction that started so long ago is still there.Not quite a friends to lovers story, but not quite a strangers to lovers story either. I guess it's more of a revisited attraction kind of story. Still, it's a fun, quick read that's not lacking for anything.
