This book was just okay for me. The characters fell flat and I felt like I didn’t really know them other than photography. The relationship was just fine nothing crazy. I liked the whole setup of boudoir photographers. The third act break up killed me.
Reid fucked I’m and it didn’t feel like he was fighting for her or groveling.
the make-up was sweet but underwhelming. I also wasn’t a huge fan of this writing style. It mixed up povs sometimes and some scene cuts were not seamless. One line we were in one scene and the very next line was a different scene with no break or transition.

TLDR: overall a cute story but the execution fell flat for me
