This is my first Abby Jimenez book and I liked it, mostly. I didn’t realize it was part of a series until

all the other main characters showed up and very clearly referenced the other books,

which I didn’t love, but for the most part it was fun. I liked the MMC a lot; I don’t read romance novels for characterization so he was a pleasant surprise.

Technically the word c**n appears but it is referring to the animal, raccoon. But it still raised my eyebrows when it came up.
