High praise for the sharp dialogue. The banter is so quick and funny and reminds me of the first time I read Garwood. The dialogue definitely makes this a fun read.
And love love love how much is in Romeo's perspective. When it comes to strong, alphahole types, it's easy to assume the worst when their actions are horrid, so it was yummy to read how every situation had him spiraling out of control.
However about halfway through the book, Dallas' started to come off as rude, wasteful, and a total villain. While it's fun for her to needle Rom at work, I feel bad for the people who work for him that have to deal with the fallout of her whimsy.
And I get that all that she wants is a baby, but he admitted to trauma and not having kids is a choice as well. It's not cute when guys force women to breed, and it's just as monstrous when women do it.
And I say this all with much regret because I was really in love with how Dallas was written and how sharp and witty she is. I just can't get over her selfish, short-sighted choices.
