I loved it so much. It wasn’t as funny as the first but it was still amazing. Plus I adore how are these men obsessed with their women.

I really liked this book. It’s different characters, different tropes - a second chance romance, different kinks (also the FMC Lo didn’t like the stalking in this book whereas it was a fun kink in the first book), but the vibe - especially the ending was so different from the first book. I enjoyed the humor from the friends but since the first book’s humor came from the MMC I think the second book just needed a little more. I love the sex positivity, loved the church scene (iykyk), I wish there was more impact in the ending because the first half was so good. I loved the audio narrators! Also Lo frustrated me in chapter 29 and I was upset what she blamed Nic for.

I didn't like this as much as Lights about, partly because of how funny Josh and Aly are, partly because I adore Jacob Morgan/Zachary Webber's narration and the characterization he adds to text. 

That said, I did jump up and down at work when the library hold hit at work as I was trying to figure out how I would get through only having six hours left of audiobook time on Spotify (I listen to audiobooks all day work). I will probably give it a second (and maybe third) listen before I return it as I did like Lauren as a character and I do appreciate Teddy Hamilton's narration, as well as the narration provided by Jason June and the Josh/Aly appearances that did feel forced.
