📝 Okay so this book was super long but it makes sense that it is? It's a why choose with 1 FMC and 3 MMC's, and we get POVs from all four of them. And the book doesn't end when they all get together, it actually spends a good amount of time grappling with what it would mean for famous-ish people to be poly.

🎧 The narration for these characters was really good and nuanced overall. There was one thing that kinda bugged me with one of the narrators, but I was able to look past it after a bit. They did a good job with the sexual tension and the sexytimes, as well as the "normal" thoughts and feelings.

🌶️ 5/5. There is no other way to rate this book... It was chock full of hot sex. Like almost all the possible configurations of the four of them happen, there's a ton of fun and playfulness, there's a little bit of kinky stuff. And there was just a lot of sexy scenes 😆

🏳️‍🌈✊ It's a foursome (MFMM), so there's straight, bi, and queer rep amongst the MCs. As for other forms of diversity, there were one or two side characters that were explicitly not white but they barely get any page time. Even class-wise, 3/4 of them are like mega rich, there's really not a lot of diversity besides sexuality. But you can't be everything for everyone all at once. It's good at what it is.

There's a lot of behavior from various players toward the FMC in the capacity of her job that is meant to be cute but would absolutely be sexual harassment irl.

Let's be honest. This book is for what it is, period. To read it with your favorite toy at hand and not give the plot too much thought. Porn with (bad) plot, that's all. Don't take it seriously... because if you do.... well, it's a book with some pretty toxic characters. Rachel is a whiny (actually, she whines all the time), manipulative spoiled brat who at no time thinks about anything but her brown pussy. Jake is an insecure little boy who has a lot of self-esteem to work on, the author says he's a golden reteiever, but perhaps he's the most toxic. Caleb could have been an interesting character if he had accepted his sexuality and communicated more, (as it looked like he was going to). And Ilmari... look, the guy is possessive as fuck and has monumental trauma. But hey, they're all possessive as hell and carry their traumas with them. If I dig deeper into the plot, I get more pissed off: their (the boy's) sexuality is specifically misrepresented, because they never admit that they like boys; the relationships between them.... (I think it would all make more sense if Caleb and Jake had something going on before Rachel arrived, if Ilmari had entered the relationship through Jake or Caleb, not Rachel). And worst of all, how toxic and unrealistic relationships and sex are, and that this is available to young impressionable girls. Zero judgedment if you read it as an adult with a head in orden to have a good time, but making it available to young girls seems very dangerous to me and normalizes horrible and super toxic things.
Not LGTB+ friendly at all!!!!!!!!!
