For a short novella this really was packed with a full story and well-rounded characters. Although the attraction starts very instantaneously, I enjoyed that the romance was a bit slower to form that I predicted. Bonus points for a dog meet-cute.

I didn't enjoy this nearly as much as The Sweetest Connection. Bennett was a bit lacklustre when you took away his British-ness. His dirty talk had me cringing out loud.

I don't feel as though the chemistry was fully explored, but I did like that Bennett's hopefulness was obvious. And the moment where Olivia thought Gia was his girlfriend—priceless!

The writing is still to the author's usual standards and certainly not a bad way to spend an afternoon!
