This was a the perfect fun, lighthearted, and steamy read to start the year off with. It had a lot of funny and witty little moments through out which I loved. Dex and Winnie are so good together and Dex’s daughters are adorable. This is an age gap romance, he is 34 and she is 22. I don’t mind the age gap, but I did feel like sometimes the story harped on that point more than necessary. Dex is a firefighter but the storyline does not center around his job or any grief/trauma that can come along with a job like that. The story focuses on Dex and Winnie both evolving as people to overcome personal traits they feel are holding them back from what they want in life and from each other. Overall I really enjoyed this book and I plan on continuing this series.
