ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
Loved every since moment of this one. I’m so happy that I found you on TikTok. And I’m glad I read them from start to finish. I loved getting little updates on the other couples. Can’t wait to see what else you have in store

This book got three stars for the spice alone. The spice was good.
It was repetitive and their relationship is the single most exhausting thing I can imagine. Like, not even the sex would make the interactions between the two redeemable.

I loved everything about this whole series, but Ben & Lola were my favorite for sure! The whole grumpy sunshine trope, but also Lola learning to stand up for herself. Ben becomes protective & sees no one has ever taken care of her or has had her back. That resonated with me. I also loved that this one had a bit of mystery & drama that the others didn’t! It set up perfectly for her next duet books! Plus characters from her previous Springbrook Hills series were in this one too. It’s always fun seeing characters you loved after they got their HEA

I just don’t know about this one guys.
it wasn’t terrible it just wasn’t my cup of tea and that’s okay.
I cringed everytime he called her sweet girl. Sweet girl is reserved for southern moms in my opinion.

This book made me question if I’m even attracted to men because if a guy was this possessive over me or used the phrase ‘my girl’ I would forcibly vomit on him then fake my own death - 2 stars because it could be worse

I had so much expectations for this one, being than the second book in this series was so much better.
But anyway Ben thinks Lola it's just an entitled rich kid and keeps being an asshole while Lola is just trying to make it on her own.

Definitely not my fave, but I did it. I’m wavering between a solid 3 stars and 3.5.
Reading this book really showed me that I am NOT the right audience for “enemies to lovers.” I was so frustrated, aggravated, and turned off/confused for a lot of this. The things that Ben would say that, in any other book, probably would’ve made me have butterflies and slap my hand over my mouth had me…cringing. I don’t think this trope is meant for me, and sadly—maybe because of this trope?—I didn’t really vibe with either of the main characters in this story.
There were some moments where, unfortunately, the relationship/conversations/interactions between Lola and Ben felt very…one sided, and a little…icky for me. But once I got in deeper to the book and the story and Lola opened herself up to him, it felt better — plus I’m a freaking sucker for “daddy” talk in the bedroom. 3 stars, wouldn’t be the first Morgan Elizabeth book I recommend, Ben is my least fave Morgan Elizabeth man, and tbh from this series I loved Vic and Gabi most <3 <3 Taking a little breather before diving into Morgan’s other series, Springbrook Hills.

This was a fun listen, but the spicy bits did not entice me. There was talk of pounding where I do not want pounding, personally. And the male character was too protective and wanted to be called Daddy, another personal ick. I loved the way the author built up suspense - I usually only listen to audiobooks in my car, but I couldn't help but listen at home, too. Honestly, my star rating would go up if the spicy bits didn't engage my ick - but the non-spicy bits were engaging and suspenseful.
