Sweet and Spicy ending

I enjoyed the love story between Zoey and Dani. The characters were relatable, there was humor, drama, and it felt honest, actually queer, and juicy. I wish it had another part or a movie.

Embracing something new

I enjoyed the story and would love to see a part two that tells more about the characters as they grow together.

Excellent Srory

Absolute favorite narrator in the peach blossom series. Great story as always. Characters are easy to fall in love with.

Such a Sweet Story 🥰

Just a sweet lovely story. Nothing too deep, just sweetness and happy feels. 5 stars, no notes.

Sensual Slow Burn

I loved the characters and really connected with Danni, even though she's a little younger than me. I still connected with her feelings over how to approach a woman, how to date a woman, and everything else as a first timer. It gives me hope for my own future.
