Code of Honor by Smartypants Romance, April White

Ok so I had really high hopes for this one because, Penny Reid and cipher securities! The plot also sounded like great fun, but within the first 200 pages the protagonists jump straight into bed with descriptions like “I sensed a connection that went far beyond the place our bodies joined, I could see the tendrils of soul that reached out through his skin toward mine”. I can’t usually deal with such over the top descriptions of sex like that unless it’s paranormal sex and there is really like, soul magic or shit like that, leaking out of their pores, then OK I’m willing ignore it. But still I soldiered on because I am generally in the habit of finishing books that I start, and then a couple of pages down the heroine fishes her own poop out of the toilet in the hero’s boat house with wooden chopsticks, and yeah I was pretty much done.
