Aaron is of course ginormous and an absolute grumpy Adonis! I enjoyed the chemistry between him and Lina. Lina was also a great character - she had a few funny moments and despite fake dating tropes always being a bit ridiculous, I found her reasoning actually quite believable. The story was excellent, however the final two chapters were a bit ick-inducing for me. They were too lovey dovey, and the insta-love vibe was a bit unbelievable for me.
The spice was really good as well...!

With the way this book started (Lina addressing Aaron via her friend), I was afraid this would go the way of childish petty behaviour as well, but it turns out it was only that scene that was annoying in a similar way to THG. After that, it got better and I really enjoyed reading this.
Lina was cute and I think her worries about relationships/trust were understandable given her past. Aaron is basically the perfect man and I thought it was amazing how he made consent sexy.

500 pages that could have been much less if they only flipping talked to each others!!!
Aaron had his cute moments but I had lots of issues with him too. The stuff he said about Lina at the beginning ( that he couldn’t work with her ) just because he was basically flustered. How is it that he didn’t think this could cause issues for her? In a male dominated work place. And he didn’t stand up for her for nearly 2 years!!! Like what?
Lina was ugh. I felt for her in many ways but instead of communicating like an adult she assumed a lot of things. I wasn’t a fan
