Light, fluffy fun with a healthy dose of spicy scenes (some hilariously cheesy)! One character does have a very bad experience with a man that is described in moderate detail.

It is a good book. It is an easy read and fast paced but I do wish there was more plot and more build for the characters. I feel like the it was so quick and rushed specifically at the beginning. I struggled to like tallulah because I feel like she acted far younger than 26, I just really struggled to take a lot of her seriously. I think if she was portrayed more to her age and showed her excitement in different ways it would have been a stronger character. 
I did enjoy the book, but it’s one of the first books I’ve found things I dislike about it.

If I could go back in time and stop myself from reading this, I would. I usually like Tessa’s books but this one was just too cringy. I should have DNF’d this but I pushed through and regret it. I don’t forgive the MMC for the third act breakup and I don’t feel like he did enough groveling to win the MFC back.
