Okay, so I loved this book... BUT all I saw on social media was how steamy and filthy the sex in this book was. There was ONE full sex scene. ONE 🙃 Was it hot? Yes. But nowhere near close to other stuff I've read.

This is where I wish there was a universal steam scale, that was based on how many fully descriptive sex scenes there are in a book. And then a lil separate scale for kink, with different levels. PLEASE. 


OKAY, BACK TO HOW I FEEL ABOUT THE REST OF THE BOOK! Gennie was hilarious and that's coming from someone who doesn't like when kids are prominently featured in books.

NOAH BARDEN, AKA JAM MAN, IS EVERYTHING. Oof, that man is swoon. I'm weak when a man falls for the leading lady first.

Also Kate is just an expert at interconnecting her book worlds! It's so nice to get lil updates on characters from previous books you've loved.
Though I wish we got to see Lauren finding out who Jam Man really is and seeing him with Shay (one of her ex-teachers) and finding out they were connected all along.
