This was just ok for me. It was smut heavy and plot light. I liked both characters but I didn't really see anything between them except sexual chemistry. At the end of their arrangement, I would not have been surprised if they walked away without feelings, but I guess they did catch feelings?! I just didn't feel it. 
After Calder's confession, I feel like they were good together but I didn't feel much leading to the confession. 
I'm also had a hard time figuring out Dakota. Sometimes she seemed heartbroken over her divorce and other times she didn't seem to care. Like she would say things like Calder showed her what real love was but then also wasn't sure she ever wanted to get married again. I realize people can be complicated but her complexities weren't discussed which just made it difficult to follow.
