I Liked it

My first book by this author and sure enough it will not be my last. It was sweet and just right for my teeth.

The story revolves around Robin and Archie two guys on the opposite sides of everything. Robin a guy who works at a store which he seems to hate and Archie a Victorian wearing steampunk obsessed guy. I liked the characters so much. They were well developed and so much fun to read about.

The writing was solid enough, the story flowed so well. The banter between the characters was enjoyable to read, i got some laughs out of it. The chemistry between the MCs was believable.

So why not all the stars? I felt like it was too long, and there was so much info filler. Things took too long to happen and ones it happened it was towards the end of the book. Good thing the characters were still interesting enough.

The side characters fit so well with the main characters. They added some spice to the story.

Overall, it was an enjoyable read. Recommended for when you are in the mood for some light cute story.
