whisperedsigh's review against another edition

5.0

I would have said i loved that this book did not include my most hated misunderstanding trope right before he lost his things esp the sd card and i was screaming in my head right there and then and had to stop reading cause i hoped this book's trivial thing is just that, carelessness. But they have to add the misunderstang too after that, tho it is just a short few pages but man i hated that. I would have givem 4 stars solely bec of that. But i loved the book overall, how mature they seemed to me with communicating with each other but i guess being hurt really does number to a person, i understood sara and feel so much for max that time, cause how could sara be the one breaking his heart. But yes we had that.

Quick Hitters
Dual POV (Max and Sara)
Friends-With-Benefits
British Playboy
Secret Relationship
Book 2 in the series but can be read as a standalone

Quick Summary
Sara just moved to New York City to work with her best friend Chloe (we met her in Beautiful Bastard). During a night out, Sara meets a charming man and they hook up at the club they are in. But, a no strings attached random hook-up may not quite be what happens when Max spots Sara at work…

Thoughts/Feelings
I really enjoyed thisbook, possibly not as much as Beautiful Bastard just because I don’t think I was quite as invested in the characters, but overall it was a spicy, light read that was great for listening while working on some other stuff. I will say the spice was realllly well written but i don’t know this book just lacked something that I can’t quite pin.
