Those Who Wait

Those Who Wait is a wonderful book about two friends, Sutton and Charlotte, who slowly realize that maybe they want more than friendship. Sutton is in her final year of her Master's Degree, and Charlotte is running for public office. The two of them cross paths on a dating app, and they strike up a friendship. Sutton has little-to-no sexual experience, and wants her first time with a woman to be special and romantic. Charlotte has the experience, but her career path makes no room for romance. Seemingly on total opposite ends of the dating spectrum, the two women instead decide to just be friends. And they are. They're really good friends. Friends who cuddle during movies, and who kiss each other on the cheek to say hello and goodbye, and who attend fancy galas together, and who can't go a full day without talking to each other, and who turn each other on more than anyone else they've ever met. That's normal just-friends behavior, right? Haley Cass has an incredible talent and skill at creating fully fleshed out characters with oceans of depth. We're dropped into this world full of sweetness, sexual tension, overwhelming yearning and angst, and a heart bursting with happiness. Those Who Wait contains such complex characters with multitudes of layers and emotions.

Not only can Haley Cass write a damn good romance, she can really deftly write…
