I’m conflicted. This might be the first HEA that I wish wasn’t.

This was probably a little too taboo for me to enjoy as a romance, but as a guilty pleasure smut read, it worked.

It ended a bit abruptly for me, and I would have liked for the family/friends finding out to have been handled on the page.

This was just TOO taboo for me. DNF'd this halfway.
I would have probably continued if Dominic was not part of Stassi's life but he was an active stepfather for a good seven years to Stassi and that just made me so freaking uncomfortable.
Also, daddy kink just does not sit right with me.
Not my cup of tea.

I honestly don’t know how I even reached this point. I must be one committed and hopeful gal bc I thought this story might turn around but alas my mind was never changed.

If you want a good age gap romance then try Birthday Girl by Penelope Douglas, if you want a specific trope that’s like “this dude saw me grow up from a child almost but now I can’t help but

Dominic and Stassia’s story checks all the boxes for a taboo romance for me AND then some!
The characters have depth and heart. I adored their story so much.
The writing is really beautiful and it’s also super hot & naughty.
I love the characters, their interactions are engaging, sexy and emotional.
The story flowed so well, I was all in for these characters and their journey to happiness. I LOVED all the sexy and naughty moments, they were delicious.
The dirty talk, the uninhibited nature of their sexual encounters was so yummy!
I love that it was taboo, that it also had a great story and characters that I connected with. I love the writing style. This is a definite winner for me!
