This was probably my least favourite of the four but thats not to say I didnt have a good time.
The opening scenes were cute. I love the sunshine/grump trope and it was done really well. Where this wasnt my favourite is that this didnt have enough smut for me and in smut book, i need a good balance. there was a ton of plot and back story which i didnt really need.
however, when Hans finally got in dat ass - literally - it was amazing!! haha
An issue I had with this was the DDLG/Daddy kink but only because Hans is basically a mercenary against human traffickers so why he would want to sort of infantalise and have a daddy kink felt a bit odd to me!? i dunno, it wasnt the best with the context but the breeding kink daddy stuff was very fun.
As ever, i liked the bromance banter with the other alliance guys lol Nero is actually insane and it was fun to see them altogether.
also, not to tell people how to write their books but i feel like there was a missed opportunity for everyone to tell Cassandra how terrible her food was and then hans have to admit he was only eating them because he loves her lol could have been cute!
A solid series for me and i'll defo check out some more S.J. Tilly and see if it lives up to this excitement.
