This book was fantastic and I didn't want to put it down! I loved the snark and banter between Izzy & Edward, and seeing them go from enemies to overs was great. Edward was first introduced in Natural Twenty, so I recommend reading that book first to get to know him a little better. I can't wait for the next book in the series!

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily gave my honest review.

Edward and Izzy were exactly how I imagined them, the tension, the hard banter !! And it was really interesting to get into the universe of cosplaying !! 
Truly loved that story ❤️

Took me a while to get into this one but I stuck it out for the tattoo artist love. Overall happy with the story and was definitely worth reading.

i was a little worried going into the books because it's not my fav troupe, but I found, that it was about two men who suited each other really well and honestly if how they started out didn't happen I'm not sure they would have looked twice at each other.

I liked that they were both clearly clueless, or maybe not willing to really look, as well as aware enough that when things moved forward they were able to come to the conclusion we all knew and it wasn't in a frustrating way, more a gentle pat on the head.

I enjoyed the cosplay aspect very nice, it didn't go in as deep as it could have and yet it was enough that if it was what you where looking for you wouldn't be disappointed and if it wasn't you wouldn't be bored.

overall I enjoyed myself throughout the whole book and am looking forward to more

I stayed up past my bedtime to finish this!

Edward and Izzy and the hate scenes are a wonderful read. I loved seeing how they met, how their 'hate' built and then how love grew into a HEA! With snarkiness and hot scenes, found family and awesome costumes, this book has a great story and flow.

Was good to get so much interaction with previous book characters as well.

This could be read as a stand alone BUT it would be way better read as part of the series!
