3.0

5/5 on the spicy scale 🌶️ as usual, which I've come to expect and appreciate from Talia Hibbert. Sadly I felt the plot was a little rushed, which, I guess, ok, it's a novella. Worse than the pacing for me though was the emotional immaturity of Cash. I didn't really like that it was

his mom who ended up telling Bailey all about their traumatic past.

I felt like that should have been a moment between Cash and Bailey.

Also, something about the homeless person savior subplot rubs me the wrong way but idk. And the fact that Cash had

watched Bailey in the coffee shop enough to draw her a lot without her knowledge...

Seems kinda stalkerish in hindsight I guess?

Obviously I will continue to read more by the author, she's one of my favorites especially for romance and erotica, with POC and ND representation. This one just didn't hit like the others for me personally.
