This was a pleasantly surprisingly good book. I wasn’t sure how much I would like it, so I was happy that I really did.
I liked both Alexa and Nick. They were frustrating at times, but I liked their chemistry. Alexa was feisty, and Nick was in denial, but they both got along really well. And the smut, of which there was a surprising amount, was really good. I wasn’t expecting as much as there was, but I was pleasantly surprised with that.
Mostly, this was a very romance-focused book, with little else. Some minor focus on other characters, but there was a lot of Alexa and Nick, and the two of them together. A lot of cute, and sexy, moments together. It made the book go by very quickly, and really pulled me in, though, which I liked.
The reason why the rating isn’t a solid four (or higher), though, is that I don’t think there was enough development. Not enough depth to the characters, not enough focus on the other parts of their lives. There was just something more that was missing.
But otherwise, this was a very enjoyable book. And I will definitely be picking up another of Probst’s books when I get the chance.
