Who knew I actually needed the angst in a romance novel to really enjoy it. There was virtually no conflict in the entire story so it felt like the literary equivalent to Walmart brand vanilla ice cream: like….im sure it’s fiiiiine, and it’s cheap and easy, but why would I pick it when anything else exists?
The spice scenes were actually quite well done, though there was virtually no character development. And despite being book 1 in a series I feel like this must be the spin off of a separate series because there are SO MANY hyper specific references to events for Josh and Gabe (side characters in this novel) that happened prior to it. So that was frustrating.
Also, no one says “Bawdy” not out loud and not in their inner voice, please don’t call sexy innuendo “bawdy language.” Overall this one was a miss and I probably should have DNFd.
