This book was rather enjoyable, when the wedding day was coming to an end and I was only about 35% through the book I wasn't sure exactly how there could be more but I was pleasantly surprised at how it continued.

Before I start to review this I need to say that I am aware I am rubbish at actually writing a decent review so I apologise to Ms James if this really doesn’t do this book justice.
This book, this story about Fraser and Charlotte was genuinely not what I expected. Even though I have read books from Ms James in the past for some reason I was expecting a light hearted romcom sort of tale. Wrong!
What I got was a story that took me away from life. A story that had my heart melting as I giggled, swooned and sobbed my blooming heart out. Not once but twice this story had me ugly crying because of the way the emotion was put down on the page. Hell it even had me crying with pure unadulterated joy.
Fraser is dreamy but he’s also as hard as iron and as soft as a teddy bear. Quite the combination I know but honestly he is everything that a leading man should be. Don’t get me wrong I wanted to slap him around the head a couple of times because of things he did in the story, trust me he would have deserved it, but those things were needed to move the story in the direction it needed to go.
Charlotte, I love her so flipping much. She’s everything, more so than Fraser. She is the light that makes the world brighter. She is smart, sassy, and seriously sweet. Watching her grow throughout this story was an absolute pleasure.
I honestly can’t find the words to give this romantic, thrilling, sexy, delightful story the justice it deserves but I will say this, I read a lot, an awful lot of books but this one blew my mind completely. For me, this is the book of the year (yes I’m aware it’s only January but

Not bad. Actually enjoyed it thoroughly. And then the epilogue ruined it all.

cute book
4.5 ⭐️ I came across this book and was I glad to have read it. The author did a great job telling the story leading you down what I like to refer to as an emotional rollercoaster. The suspense was great, the ending was great. Bravo. Definitely a must read if you like romcom mixed with some Smut and action
