This was fun! A star home improvement man and the producer/should be director. There’s so much tension and he is just so so into her. I was annoyed she took so long to give in but it was eventually worth it. Enough smut but took a long time to get there

I really enjoyed this one. I wanted to love it, and I did love Gannon and Paige, but the OW (other woman) drama is a pet peeve for me. And am I the only one to notice that Gannon never, not once, told anyone else that Meeghan wasn’t his girlfriend in front of Paige? He only said it when they were alone together, and Meeghan was still telling the world they were together, so no wonder Paige worried. (Mild spoiler but not really: no cheating in this book)
I read the second book in the series first, and it didn’t ruin anything for me. Both are good as standalones, too.

This book was pretty cute, although I found that even though their relationship did take some time to progress, we didn’t actually see a lot of the buildup before they got together. Gannon was pretty sweet but not one of my favourite mmcs. I liked that he was protective and supportive of her. Paige was ok, again I liked her but didn’t love her. The ending was cute but I really don’t know how Paige didn’t see it coming because it seemed so obvious. Sweet story, but nothing mind-blowing or super emotional for me. I just wish there had been a little more of the tension and buildup before they got together.

I really enjoyed this book for the most part, even if certain elements didn't work for me. I loved Paige, and who doesn't love some house porn to go with their porn porn? I enjoyed that all the main characters felt nice and fleshed out, with their own dreams and backstories. I feel like that element is sometimes lacking in romance and chick lit, so I appreciated it here.
Where it fell apart a bit for me was with Gannon. For me, personally, his pushiness and possessiveness were a turn off. So while the scenes between Paige and Gannon were hot, I was never totally into it because realistically, if Gannon weren't hot AF and a celebrity, his behaviour would be terrifying. I don't mind a bit of possessiveness, but Gannon definitely had some alarm bells going off in my head. I also wish he and Paige had been better at communicating. At 425 pages, the book could have trimmed some "it isn't what it looks like" weight.
Still though, I enjoyed this book and the characters quite a lot. I would definitely be open to reading more from this author, she definitely has the characters and the steam down pat, even if the specifics of this one didn't entirely work for me.
