(Audiobook)
Daaaaaamn. People kept telling me that Tessa Bailey was spicy but I had read a few of her books before and wasn’t that impressed…but this one knocked it out of the park!! This is an age gap romance between a rockstar musician and the woman who used to babysit him. I was hooked from the beginning of this one.

This was free on Spotify and I read nothing about it other than that Tessa Bailey wrote it. The spicy moments were SO spicy, so we loved that. I get that there is a seven year age gap, but that's really nothing?? Like they're both in their 20s so calm down. The fact that she was his babysitter made me cringe though...and then they kept bringing it up to further sink me in my chair.
"this babysitter's p- tastes just like sugar" P L E A S E LMAO

Actual rating: 3.5 stars.
I have a hard time rating any of Miss Bailey's work lower than 3.5. She writes the absolute best heroes. Her alpha dirty talking heroes make my insides do things that would be TMI for your eyes. And honestly, that is what saved this book for me. It wasn't the older woman-younger man trope that bothered me. It was the heroine. I just didn't care that much for Jasmine. I liked that she wasn't white (yay for minority MCs!), I even liked her vulnerability; however, I couldn't connect with her. I was also annoyed about how much she fought against her and Sarge's connection. Sarge was the best of course, and his dirty talk was something out of my dreams.
It was still a great read by one of my favorite authors.

I listened to this as an audiobook from Spotify as something new to listen to while working on an art project. It was so good that at times I had to stop what I was doing just to pay attention to what was going on. This was the first work of Tessa Bailey’s that I’ve read or listened to, and I’m hooked!! Will definitely be reading more of her works in the future! :)

"Stop trying to be a good girl, baby. We're here to be bad."
This book was wow.
I did not expect it to be SO FUCKING SPICY.
Like, my heart and brain weren't ready.
This definitely can't be read in public, trust me.
I love Hot & Hammered series so much.
From that series, I know it was a new adult plotline.
I was expecting the same from this but this went above and beyond with the spicy times.
Just like the cover, the title, the blurb. THIS WAS SUCH A ROCK AND ROLL SEX READ!
It was pure sex. Let's not lie, the plotline was mostly spicy sexy times.
The sexual tension was already there since the two characters have a "past" with each other.
What's different about it though, is we rarely get this but the female lead is older than the male lead which I love.
It was a simple straightforward plotline.
Nothing too wow. But did I enjoy it? YAS.
Can't wait to read the rest of the series and other Tessa Bailey's spicy work!!
"What about the part when I told you I love you, Jas? Let me know if you're planning on ignoring it, so I can say the words again. And again. Until you can't."

2.5 stars. Meh. Disappointed, premise sounded awesome but the execution was lacking. The characters were a little to flat for my tastes. I love Tessa’s work but this book just didn’t work for me.

The main relationship in this one didn’t really work for me, but I will keep reading because I want to know what happens with James & River’s stories!
