Can’t decide what I disliked more. Maybe the N I N E T E E N year age gap?? Or maybe Jordan who’s “not like other girls 🤪” because of her love for the 80s??

ugh this was so cute!!! there was so much chemistry between jordan and pike. sexy scenes had a lot of passion and connection (3.75/5). there’s a solid build up that really enhances the magnetism between them.
