🌟 Writing. Direct, not flowery
🌟 About. Set under the sweltering heat of the Arizona sun, two unlikely coworkers Max and Jordan must work hand in hand in order to earn enough to keep Jordan's house.
WARNINGS: Rape, Racism, Homophobia, Sexism, Animal Cruelty, Mental Disorders, Parental Neglect, Addiction
💕 Likes 💕
- Character development between the leads
- No miscommunication trope; emotions were more or less made known and the characters actually talked about things instead of bottling them up and exploding
💔 Dislikes 💔
- Chemistry between them was flimsy.
- Some issues were brushed over (Jordan's obliviousness to the racial disparity between them, Max's aggressive way of dealing with Jordan's wavering confidence)
📩 Overall Thoughts 📩
Definitely something that isn't an easy read. It's not just a mere summer romance (which I first assumed it to be) as it deals with some pretty heavy stuff.
