 Although it becomes a little repetitive after a while and lacks a plot—just continuous smut—it was still really hot. Not to mention, there were some truly troubling passages in the book, such as the one where a grown man fantasizes about seeing his son's girlfriend for sex in the same place. It struck me as a little odd and nearly made me dnf.

I've been seeing the series appear quite a bit. Still, I've never picked any of them up before because I never read anything from Sloane, and they aren't part of KU, so I'm a little picky over which books I spend money on. However, once Sweetgrass announced that she would be one of the authors, I finally took the plunge and picked up this book. It was so good, and honestly, I loved that there was an actual story underneath all of the steam. This book focuses on Greg and Cassidy, who end up having a relationship. It's on the taboo side because of the age gap and the fact that Cassidy is Preston's ex and Preston is Greg's son! So things were super messy and hard for Greg and Cass from the beginning, and although it had a ton of drama, I wish there was a little more. I think it would've been interesting to see Preston's mom appear. She and Greg separated when they were young, and Greg had a strained relationship with Preston. Still, it would've added a dramatic new level to the story. We got some chaos with the neighbor, but it fizzled out really fast. I got the rest of the series, so I can't wait to see what happens next and discover how these books are connected! I hope we still get to see Cass and Greg, though!

I don't think the storyline is well written. It's mostly just super horny smut. Which is nice, but it kinda never stops. And it's pretty unrealistic.
Like she and Greg literally kissed MINUTS after she broke up with Preston. And her mother is so fine with the relationship in the end like wtf my mom would not support that in any way.
But because they mentioned "Top Gun" i gave it an extra star.

This ended up being a meh read. It wasn't horrible, just not my favorite. I found myself skimming through a page here and there. Despite that I found it enjoyable for the most part.
