What a whirlwind! I thought this book did a really good job at handling the moral dilemma of a best friend’s dad trope and all that can ensue. It was steamy, sexy, and smutty. I enjoyed Theo and Avery and felt they were well-matched. Their relationship progressed in what felt like a natural, real, raw way—it didn’t ever crossover to creepy (thank god). I had a good time reading this book and getting to know these characters. It did feel like a bit of an abrupt ending from the last chapter to the epilogue, but overall, I enjoyed this book!
