I really liked this book. I was hoping that Tiernan would end up with

Jake as I like age gap romances, or Noah as he was sweet to her

. I liked the ending, and I thought throughout the book that

Jake would end up with Marai which i was happy about

. Good spice level throughout the book :)

Reading this again for the second time, I found it a lot harder to read the parts where Kaleb treats Tiernan badly. The fact that he called her a slut was very hypocritical of him, and I hated when he touched Tiernan sexually when she was asleep. I Especially hated when he was rough with her and didn't stop when she said no twice. I hated how possessive he was of her. He had a lot of shit to work through, but it worked out OK in the end
