2.0

Pipe Dreams 04/02-04/03 

Overall: 2 

 

This was just not for me. I found myself having a hard time caring about either of the MCs or their motivations for literally any of the choices they made. The chemistry wasn’t there. 

 

Audiobook: 5/5 

Spice: 2 - open door, explicit language

I think this is my favorite in the series so far. While also a second-chance book like the first one, the male love interest is also a widow and single father and it focuses on how a second-chance romance blossoms with that as well.

Lauren is too good for Mike and he didn’t have to work nearly hard enough to get her back. Gina Denny says the stupid decisions of characters make for great stories. This was not that… They both suck at considering Mike’s daughter in their decisions. It was impossible to root for them until the end of the book.
