I should have known from the dedication that this would not be my vibe. Its weird that you feel the need to include a line about being proudly unfeminist by giving head to the guy you're attracted to and the MMC was a whole bunch of weird overprotective red flags in the not sexy way. Did not continue.

Started and immediately realised it’s basically a retelling of Done and Dusted by Lyla Sage. It’s a blatant copy and I’ve not got time in my life for that. The Lyla Sage books are brilliant and as another review put it this reads like a Temu knockoff.
