#MiddleLifeRomance 
Sapphic 
Fake dating 
Lady bodyguard 
Canadian MC 
 
Hollywood starlet (Natalie) is in need of some personal protection so she gets an extra bodyguard to pose as her girl friend. 
Slow burn - no real spice until 70% 

I find lots of Sapphic Lit I'm drawn to is slower than MM or MF but at the same time stereotypically fast.  This couple went from Boss/Employee to "I love you" in less than 3 months and one romp in bed. 
 
Narration: two distinct narrators is always my preference but the single narrator was okay. Natalie’s inflection is giving Paris Geller vibes.
