At first I really did not like the FMC and found her selfish and vapid, but her personal growth and character development were both very deep. The MMC was someone I liked from the start - his stoic, practical, routine-driven personality was appealing. I did not buy the InstaLove here, but the relationship gradually became more believable as it unfolded.
The sexual content in this was absolutely gratuitous and took a lot away from the story. I skimmed / skipped it all.

For me things just moved too fast from the banter stage, and just a bit too much smut for my liking. I didn’t connect with Piper that much (Hannah was more my taste) but generally it’s a decent lighthearted romance with good sex scenes if that’s all you care about in a romance book.

Hannah, her sister, was supportive & interesting despite being a not-main character & thus not knowing much about her. I'm excited to read her story too. I love seeing female besties/siblings in f+m romance novels, especially when they do actually call both the MCs' shit out.
There was 1 moment where I hated Brendan. The way he handled
Oh & I also kinda hated the
The spicy scenes were so much fun & very well written! The narrator was easy to listen to & I do think she brought Piper to life! My first Tessa Bailey book! I can't wait to read her new Christmas novel...but consider this a warning to Ms Bailey: if it's not the smuttiest, most festive shit I've ever read I will be disappointed :(
