A review by binevolentbookworm
The Au Pair Affair by Tessa Bailey
Did not finish book. Stopped at 79%.
ok so here's the thing...i was entertained at first. i'd never read a hockey romance or a tessa bailey book & i thought hey, what the heck, let's try this. however, i regret to report this read like she put her story idea into chat gpt and asked for it to write a book for her.
the jokes were bad, the writing worse, chemistry??? i couldn't find it. everything was so so repetitive and i felt so exhausted by all the time i had to spend in this lame ass man's head. plus, all the tropes were a mess of let's just throw these at the wall to see what sticks.
i mean, the success of her books baffles me!!!!
and yet it WAS bingeable so i kept reading even tho so much wasn't working for me?????
i finally got distracted with a game and forgot this book existed until i got the notification that it automatically returned and all i can say is, i'm glad that's over.
