Oh My Gawd!!!!! I’m officially in love with Lockart Weston and the Weston family. I’ve been dying for their series since they popped up in The Spade Hotels series.
I’m a sucker for books about restaurants and food. You’d think with what I do for a living I would want to avoid them, but I’m just drawn to them. I love the restauranteur prospective, and I never object to a good billionaire romance. The food critic aspect is a fun twist instead of just reading about out the creation of the restaurant or the staff.
I love Hart and Sadie together. They are the cutest and I love that they both fall for each other easily, even if there are obstacles between them thanks to Sadie’s job. The spice is amazing. Marni really knows how to write those spicy scenes.
How on earth am I going to wait for The Wildest One?!?
Thank you Valentine PR for my copy of this book. Being a part of Marni's ARC Team is the biggest honor.

This is another new fave of mine by Marni! Alpha billionaire who falls hard?! Yes, please!
Hart meets Sadie at a hotel one day and their chemistry is instant. They spend a hot night together, but the next morning Sadie leaves.
Months later, they end up running into each other at a restaurant and Hart refuses to let her leave without getting her number this time.
Hart falls so hard for her + wants to spend all his free time with her. But, Sadie is hiding a secret. She’s a popular food critic influencer who hides her identity. When she’s tasked to review Hart + his family’s new restaurant, she gets stressed since she doesn’t want to give him a bad review.
When everything comes to light, they both realize they can’t be without one another.
This book was just so good! Swoony and oh so spicy! I loved every minute of it.
This is a MUST read if you love:

When secrets spark chemistry!
From the very first page, this book had me hooked. The Weston Group series is off to a stellar start with a story full of sharp banter, sizzling tension, and secrets begging to be uncovered.
Tropes I loved:
** Billionaire
** He Falls First
** One Night Stand
** Secrets
Told in dual POV, which allows the reader to experience every moment from both Sadie and Hart's perspectives, amping up the tension and anticipation of this slow burn. Their chemistry is electric, and Hart's transformation as he lets down his walls for Sadie made me swoon. I devoured this one and was left wanting so much more. Bring on the next Weston!

𝙼𝚢 𝚃𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚐𝚑𝚝𝚜:
Marni Mann kicks off The Weston Group series with a bang💥—literally and figuratively. Hart Weston, the self-proclaimed "arrogant one," is a billionaire restaurateur known for his one-night stands and cocky demeanor. Enter Sadie Spencer, an anonymous food critic with secrets of her own. Their chemistry? Off the charts. Their banter? Witty and electric. Their secrets? Potentially relationship-ending. But what sets this book apart is how Mann handles the inevitable conflict—not with a dramatic breakup, but with mature, heartfelt conversations. ❤️🩹It's refreshing and real. And let's not forget the spice🌶️—starting in chapter one and maintaining a steady simmer throughout. If you're into alpha males who fall hard, foodie romances, and sizzling chemistry, this one's for you.
🎧 Audiobook Thoughts:
Vanessa Edwin + Aiden Snow = literal perfection. Their voices made every scene, especially those scenes, hit 10x harder. The spice? The emotion? The tension? They nailed it. Totally worth the immersive read-and-listen combo. 🏅

DNF after 30%. I hardly ever DNF a book but this was that shitty. Probably the dumbest smut I’ve ever read. If my 30 year old friend/sister disappeared for 15 min in the middle of dinner and when she came back to the table said she was just fucked in the back of the alley, with a guy who’s last name she doesn’t even know, I would be VERY concerned and also disgusted. I’d be asking her to maybe reschedule dinner with us since she was preoccupied??
