It was good, although the story was a bit dragging.

Really give this book at 3.5 star it was pretty interesting. I love how Emma has 3 cats. The romance aspect in some parts were highly fictional otherwise it was a pretty good story.

billionaire/ independent woman thing kinda worked

I loved this book so much! I'm a "cat lady" so i can relate lol! This girl is just an ordinary girl, loves cats, books and her friend signs her up on this dating site. Well, thats where it all begins, she has a "date" and when she goes on her date, theres a small mixup and she ends up meeting a very hot , handsome man. Love that there were some funny moments , "I will destroy you," the slitted green gaze replies. "You're going to die a slow and painful death under my paws, just like a mouse. Not that I've ever seen a real mouse, but still..." (He has some moments with her cats lol)
Some real hooot, steaminess moments too. If you love 50 Shades you will definitely love this one ! Can't wait to read more from the author. Putting her on my favs list.

2.5*

I would rate 5 STARS for narrators alone.
But sadly Mr. York & Ms. Erickson could not save this book.


Hero makes it clear that he only wants sex with heroine and would never marry someone like her. So he’s just going to f*ck her while keeps seeing his “soon-supposed-to-be-perfect-wife” and this does not sit well with me. What a selfish asshole.

Hero is rich and guess what ?! Our heroine is a desperate pathetic one :)

At least it’s safe so 2 stars with a little bonus.

The only thing that saves this book is some of those scenes were hot and in the climax, she says no to his crazy idea. While there was a lot of action some were so fetishized that I had to stop reading. Looking at the foot fetish scene. It's unbelievable unrealistic like in 48hrs this woman had 12 orgasms and the guy thinks moving in together will help him learn restraint. There's no plot just misunderstanding In the beginning and then just stalking and porn. Stop idealizing relationships like this!

fast-paced

I had to take a few days to process this one before I wrote my review. Because it made me angry. I don't normally mind cliff hangers for the most part, but this one definitely annoyed me. 

The characters were fine, a bit shallow but fine. The ~spicy~ scenes were great.

I enjoyed the story, but the ending really put me off reading the next one.

The narrators were great.

I was really looking forward to this and had some really high hopes for it. 

Unfortunately, though it’s pretty generic. There’s only about a paragraph to each different, devotion type thing.  
a lot of times there’s only a little bit of original text a lot of it is extra Bible verses. 
I don’t know I just feel devotionals, often times offer more than just simple Bible verses.  a little bit of time. 
There’s normally a story or a message as well as more resources available. 

You don’t like actions, one can take in things one can do. 
As well as other resources,  like other books to read or whatever. 

Where this didn’t have much of that at all.  It’s simple and basic. This might be really good for like somebody who’s just starting up their faith journey. 
But for me someone has been doing this for a while I need more.
