I feel like going into every Tessa Bailey book you have to prepare yourself for some cringey dirty talk and weird alpha-male possessiveness, however I did not prepare myself well enough to read this book! I wish I read this on my kindle so I would have been able to search how many times Travis says "baby girl" but after about time #50, my eyes rolled further and further back into my head.
Stephen is the embodiment of toxic masculinity since he does not care about his sister's one bit until they start doing something he doesn't like and then he needs to come over an exert his Y chromosome into the situation. How his wife is portrayed in the book is also really odd. She's painted as this southern belle type who he'd do anything for, but on multiple occasions he forces her to come home when he doesn't like what she's doing. I honestly spent more of the book wishing for them to break up then Georgie and Travis to get together.

I really liked this book until the virgin situation. Why does she need to be a virgin? We’re supposed to believe she just saved herself for a man she didn’t think she had a chance with? We didn’t need that.

Tessa Bailey what are you dooooing (read to tune of:“Rianna what are you dooooing”) literally tho, all I could see in my head was genzlinger from new girl when I remembered that Georgie was a clown. The dialog was so cringe that the sex scenes had to make up for so many other deficits. I know what you’re wondering, and yes I do intend to read the rest of the books in this series because I am still committed to Tessa.

Tessa Bailey lo hizo otra vez... Una romcom, spicy, dulce y dónde el enfrentarse a los miedos del pasado lleva al crecimiento personal y por supuesto a un vivieron felices.
