I liked this, but it was a prime case of too much sex brain commentary and gratuitous scenes once they started fucking. I liked Vaughn and Billie’s chemistry when they were teasing, but once it turned serious, I just couldn’t get all the way on board for some reason. Probably in part because I find it wayyy too convenient that she’s bat shit on the job but submissive in the sheets; yeah right 😑 anyway, I’m looking forward to the other installments. I only started with this one b/c it was available from my library.
