“You can’t plan your whole future just because of one bad day from the past.”

Saw this in bookstagram and thought I should try it out during my beach vacation thinking that I could easily finish this book during the trip, which I did after 3 days. I enjoyed reading this more than I thought I would, actually, and that surprised me, given the synopsis. I love the interactions between the two MCs and it wasn’t even focused on her being a camgirl and him being her biggest subscriber. It legit focused on her being a nanny to his daughter. It was a slow-burn type of interaction where I was just there wishing they be together already, but of course, it’s not that simple, especially given the situation they both were in. But once they’d given in, I was there for it. The spice of this is more than I can take, tbh, and I’m living for it! 

The only two downsides for me is the fact that this is unrealistic and the ending. It’s sort of unrealistic in a way that a previous camgirl and her subscriber would be “fated” to work together. Although, I love it because it gives hope for girls who are in that line of work but I doubt there would be an Aiden in one of their subscribers. Unfortunately, the ending was a miss for me. I hate endings such as that were it was all “I’m leaving because it’s for the best” and then ended up being miserable because of it. Then after awhile, the two MCs get back together after talking. It just pain me to see all those wasted time where in fact, they could just easily talk it out. 

Nonetheless, I had fun reading it! Thanks for the fun read during my vacation!
