⚠️ Warning: Spicy with 👉🍑😳

This storyline was cute but seriously … 3 weeks from strangers to engaged (understand this is fiction). The chemistry between these 2 was okay and there was stuff throughout the story that just rubbed me the wrong way: big focus on her diabetes, ridiculous driving scene, the gross kink, etc. I listened to the audiobook & I couldn’t stand the voice for Wells. He’s dialogue was so strange too.

“It’s not always about the next thing you do. Sometimes it’s about what you already did.”

I got my copy from Afterlight and that's really the only reason why I subscribed to it - to get a copy of this wonderful Tessa Bailey book. Usually, her books are a hit and miss but this time for sure, it was a definite hit. So I'm really glad I paid a lot of bucks for this wonderful exclusive edition.

This book was just a cute book - I think that's the best way to simply describe this book. I was having all sorts of emotions throughout my reading journey. Mostly though, I was just smiling pretty hard because I was swooning. I think the last time I was like this with a Tessa Bailey book was with Brendan from IHOS but this time, with Wells. To be honest, Wells is a biiiiiiig walking red flag but I'm blind when it comes to bad boys turned semi-good boys. That's Wells for me. For some reason, he got good after actually acknowledging Josephine, who's been a fan for years. There's that big plot hole but let me look another way. When Wells actually got together with Josephine, I was just a goner. All those sexual scenes they got together was so hot. Usually, it's cringey when guys talk during the sex scenes but when Wells was doing it, I was totally fine with it. I'm not sure why but it must have been because he was just so honest during those intimate moments and he's just thinking out loud. Either way, I was living for it. I love how it also focused on Josephine's condition. It showed how people are treated differently once people found out that they have a certain condition.

What really decreased the rating for me is the ending. It was an unnecessary fight, maybe the author just didn't want a third-act break up (which I usually hate so I was fine with this ending). The epilogue was cutie though. I don't usually care about the epilogue but this one was necessary. I just love Wells so much and I'm glad he turned a new leaf and got Josephine.

I liked the premise of this book, but struggled with the execution. There was way too much sex. They’ve got chemistry, we get it. The constant sexual references and detailed scenes made their relationship feel shallow and the book one note.

I also struggled with the fact that Josephine “couldn’t” be his caddy for the masters because of the pro-shop. Why didn’t she work on it as much as she could between tournaments? Why didn’t her parents offer to help sooner? It used to be their business. And I find it hard to believe running a pro shop solo 7 days a week is anyone’s dream. She’s going to need some employees.

I can see others enjoying this book but after trying a few by this author I think she’s just not for me.
