That all said, I read it pretty quickly and enjoyed it, for the most part. Not loving the "sassy Black friend" here (though Temper is fire!), but oh well. We get some more Des, which is great, and the chemistry between these two is still great. The spice here is a bit secondary (3/5), but overall good story. Led me to read on, so I think if you liked the first one, you'll like this one. I am, however, hoping that the final book will pick up.
