I've been waiting for this book since I ARC read Swallow Your Pride last year. And dear lord was it worth the wait. I loved the first book in the Carlson Brothers series, but that way I was screaming every time L ME THOSE COUSINS Penny & Linc were together "PLEASE TELARE FVCKING" was such a sure-fire sign that this book was gonna consume me.
This book was as dirty as it was wholesome. Two "strangers" on opposite sides of a glory hole with undeniable chemistry realize they're not strangers at all, but in fact cousins. I came for the smut but I stayed for the incredibly relatable depiction of feeling deeply alone while surrounded by people. "Do you ever feel like you don't know who you are?"
Penny is a twenty-something year old, people pleaser, who feels like an outsider in her adoptive family, worried she's not worthy of their love, and terrified that she'll never be able to build a life for herself. Linc is a brooding, workaholic in his thirties, who's been pushing away his family to keep them from seeing his own perceived failures.
Maybe I'm not the only fucked-up one in the family after all, and it's wrong, but it's nice to find solace in someone else's pain.
I loved the push and pull of their dynamic, as they tried to figure out how much they were willing to give up for the chance to be together. Linc learned how to show up for Penny in their relationship, and she finally felt comfortable enough to let go of the fake sunshine facade she'd been holding onto to keep everyone around her happy.
"You're Penelope Abigail Myers, the most gorgeous, selfless, funniest woman I know... You're strong, stronger than anyone gives you credit for, and you're the best fuck of my life."
Lincoln has chosen me repeatedly and all he's asked for is the same in return.
Oh and did I mention the spice was DELICIOUS.
