So very good! The third act conflict felt true to the characters and was well written, not just some random miscommunication like some romance books. I love the communally theme and the lack of damsel-in-distress storytelling. Only reason I didn’t finish it one day is because I have a toddler who wants to read his books. But it’s that good.

Worthy of the hype for the smut content alone. I had a silly goofy fun time and will be reading every other book in this series.

not seeing Anastasia’s solo career is a miss on the authors part. She gains all of this confidence via her man but it would have been so much more interesting to see her do it for a career that is entirely reliant upon herself. The public non-consensual kiss was visceral to read and if it *needed* to be included, it should have happened with more than 20 odd pages left in the book to see some of Anastasia’s growth and processing which we were granted for much less severe plot points.

This book is very long and there were some things I felt could be cut out, some relationships I felt could be tamed down. But overall, I really enjoyed this! The spicy scenes were excellent. Nate as a character is phenomenal. He’s a great example of what healthy masculinity looks like without being perfect.

Really liked this novel-good spice level, medium to low stakes, quick read! Loved the modern setting, the characters were a lot of fun. I do think some of the heavier subject matter was a little clunky but not mis-handled.
