Play Dirty by Onley James, Neve Wilder

3.0

3 stars may be pushing it, but it's close enough. I definitely should't have read these back-to-back since there's not quite enough depth for that, but it was entertaining enough. (Also, "Die Hard-style Christmas" is wildly false advertising!!! That didn't affect my rating, but NO.)

The smut is deeper than the feels somehow, which is probably my biggest complaint, but I think that's the price you pay for having MCs with super fucked up backstories. You can't really lean into their insecurities/feels without leaning into the dark, which is not what this series is about. And I wouldn't be reading it if it was, so...
