367 Days by Jessica Gadziala
3.0

This for me was another good one in this series. Scarlett Scott is often hit or miss for me, but I keep reading because I really enjoy the ones that are hits.

I again felt a good connection between the H and h. Their meet cute was very different from what we’ve seen in this series. I also loved that the H wasn’t exactly nobility and was a merchant. Something I don’t think/feel I see enough if in HR.
The only other shop owner I can think of is Lisa Kleypas’ Marrying Winterbourne. (Which in my opinion was the best in that series.)

The banter between Tarquin and Lily was fun as well. She was never afraid to stand up to him or of him. They were never intimidated by each other, but found the other more fascinating.

When it got to the sex scenes there were slight hints at D/s (very slight, that if you were not overly familiar with it you wouldn’t pick it up). And I found it so sexy. We very often see these dominate men always directing and ordering the scene around, but here we had Lily in charge and being worshiped while he’s literally at her feet/kneel multiple time. She tells him what to do. He calls her his Queen. I’m here for all of that of Scott would write a few more heroes like this.

I was sort of weirded out by the name of another character, Clementia, it was just too close to Dementia.

I am intrigued to go into the next book now that we’ve had a small glimpse at some things that Logan has maybe been up to, the past two years or so while away from his family.
