A fun, spicy read for those wanting a bit of levity in their day. There’s spice, romance, and humor. The story does a good job of keeping pace and the dual POVs keep the tension between the two MCs steady throughout the book.

I listened to the audio versions and the narrators do a fantastic job of bringing the characters to life.

This book is unique, fast-paced, and sex positive. Because it was so fast paced, I was looking for a bit more development of the relationship but it was still a really fun read.

I officially love romance novels and this book has everything to do with it.

Ok. I have a lot of feelings about this book. I did not expect Josh to be a porn star. The first 100-150 pages made me feel two things; Uncomfortable and cringe, Or just one of them. I can't tell. It seemed so awkward to me. I feel like the author just put in things that would make the readers happy or "spicy". Some scenes were really nice though. I did really hate the fact that they both kept saying things like they wouldn't ever be allowed to be in-love. It just seemed weird to me. One of the few good things about this book is Naomi. I fucking love her, she has my entire heart. If she had her own book. I would read it.

This book was STEAMY. Not like basic bitch steamy but more like H O T.

I went into this book with fairly low expectations, mainly cause I was in a reading slump already but god damn this book delivered more then I was expecting. The cover Lowkey suggests more lols and discrete bangs, but it really delivered on great f*cks. And they were *chefs kiss*

The other thing about this book was the sex positivity, Rosie Danan did an exceptional job of producing a character who is comfortable with his sexuality as well as being fully in control, making sure there is consent in all situations.

I would 100% recommend this, the only thing I would have liked to have seen a bit more is the troubling relationship Clara had with her family

Oh man, this book was excellent. I’m usually not a fan of friends to lovers, but oh boy am I a fan of Clara and Josh. A sweet, funny him o and an uptight wasp? Excellent. I already have another book by the same author all geared up to read next and I can’t wait to start it
