This book was really good, I loved the appearances from other characters to help Xavier during this book. I loved the MC’s growths and bonding as the book went on, and the smut scenes served hard. The only scene that gave me the ick was when Sloane rode Xavier’s shoe🤢🤢. I cannot wait for ‘The Striker’ and ‘King of Envy’ to come out!
Quotes:
- “To every woman who’s ever been told to “smile more.” Fuck that. Do what you want.”
- “I’m naming it the Sloane. Bitter at first but with a sweet aftertaste. Just like someone I know.” “You don’t know how I taste.” His smile took on a decidedly more wicked slant. “Not yet.”
- “Luna is short for mi luna. My moon. Because no matter how dark the nights got, you were always there, shining so brightly that I always found my way through.”
- “I loved her, totally and completely, and I’d be damned if I let anyone hurt her.”
- “Love isn’t about perfection, Luna; it’s about imperfect people creating their own version of happily ever after.”
- “If kisses had colors, this one would reflect the tatters of control swirling around us, a symphony of crimson and amber and pure, stunning cobalt. They sank beneath my skin, sending electric currents over every raw, exposed nerve.”
- “I looked at her and couldn’t breathe.”
- “Not God, Luna.'' I dipped my head, my mouth brushing hers with each word. She tasted sweet, warm, perfect. ''God has no hand in what I'm about to do to you.”
- “Your technique is shit, and you couldn’t find a clit if the woman drew you a map and marked it with a giant X.”
Tropes:
- Billionaire
- Forced Proximity
- Grumpy Sunshine
- He Falls First
