5 out of 5 ☆’s.

“I'm watched and observed all the time. By strangers. By cameramen. By people. And never, never have I come undone. Until now, until his eyes feel like hands, and I want them all over me.”

I’m so happy that I took the time to reread this masterpiece! I missed Moffy + Farrow so much & going back to where it all began for them made me nostalgic. :’)

I had a feeling I would love this book the moment I read the blurb. Little did I know, that by page 200, I would already be ordering the next 5 in the series. 

I read this book in one sitting and I absolutely loved it. The characters just felt so real. Wile there is definitely some cheesy romance, it felt like something you would see in real life. 

Unlike most romance novels, it was clear this was building a world and extensive cast. So there was a lot of background details and information, but I just ate up the world they created. 

It was light hearted but not fake, honest and cute, and the spicy was great too! 

Over all, just a fantastic read.

marrow’s banter have my entire heart. they literally just make fun of each other…and then make-out.. so true of them 🫶🏼
————————
comparatively, this book was written VERY differently than their other novels. the narration felt stilted at times, so it was a little hard to get into. but i love marrow’s banter, they’re so adorable. dorks in love if i’ve ever seen it
