3.0

This is my second read from Tacarra and, while I really liked the first book I read from her titled Khan's Choice, this short story, Courtesy of Duval County just didn't cut it for me. The characters were pretty stereotypical and the story was just really unlikely. I really enjoyed the synopsis and thought the premise was cool, but reading this love story just felt really rushed and I think more could've been done to establish the relationship between the FMC, Janelle/Nellie, and the MMC, Shariq/Frost. 

Courtesy of Duval County is mostly engaging with likable characters. The book is relaxing, occasionally funny, and it offers an escape. I recommend this short story to established fans of Tacarra.
