I was reading this book and enjoying it ... Then out of nowhere it turned into another scale with just one scene and just few words .... my mind is still not recovered yet form the aftermath of reading this book but I need/ want more of this and I can't wait ......

The title of this book is appropriate as A.J. did just that by "teasing" me with a spicy read. The build up between Blair, Oliver, and Rook got me all hot and bothered. I loved this book so much. I started it early in the morning and was already twenty percent in before I made myself put it down so that I could get in one hour of sleep before my alarm went off. However, once the workday was over, you can bet I picked this book up again and finished it.
If you asked me to pick a favorite between the two men, I would plead the fifth as I can't. I liked them both for different reasons. Oliver for his more jokester/taunting attitude and Rook for his studious one. Rook gives the teacher/student age gap vibes. Yet, both men share strong love for Blair. Make sure to grab a copy of this book as you don't want to miss it!

This book was a dark romance and may have triggers, so check the trigger warnings in the beginning.
This was my first A.J. Merlin book, so I didn’t know what to expect. The beginning was a bit slow, but once the story really started, I was hooked!
There were some predictable parts, but other parts shocked me. The men are morally grey, yet they’re lovable. There were some spicy scenes, but I wouldn’t say they were super spicy.
The ending wasn’t really a cliffhanger, but it left a lot to think and wonder about. All I know is, I’ll be reading the next book!
