Not the author for me. Little chemistry between MCs, plot all over the place, cringe smut scenes, had to increase audio speed to get through it.

I cringed at the intro and my heart broke a little but seeing them as adults working through their issues made it easier to get into. Dot was insufferable every bit of the way. Row was an amazing MMC, even through his broody, grumpy, asshole moments. He was super protective, cared about her so much he knew her tics without her having to even say as much. He was deliciously attentive, patient and gentle.

I loved Row but Cal just really irritated me … I get trauma and all but he professed his love to you and you still couldn’t see it until 90%(ish) of the way through the book …? How ?
I loved his sarcastic comments and humor but I also loved how raw he was with Cal when it came to telling her how he felt .

Not my favorite romance. But it wasn’t bad either. There was character growth and development. While the background story was good, it still was your typical grumpy-sunshine trope. The writing is easy to follow/read, but still entertaining.

I really enjoyed this book but it’s getting 4 stars because of 2 things:
Gravity? Really I thought it was a joke when I read it
AND
I will never look at a zucchini or a candy cane the same way again
