 I finished Cade and Willa’s story in one sitting because I genuinely couldn’t put it down. To be honest, I was rushing to get to reading Reckless, but I enjoyed this, nevertheless. Luke was an adorable addition to this grumpy x sunshine story. I appreciated how Elsie Silver touched up on the conflicts and insecurities couples in age-gap relationships face. I don’t read a lot of the trope and it’s not exactly a favorite, so Heartless was definitely a first. Again, little to no conflict, just feel-good all over and let me tell you Cade has a fucking dirty mouth. The smut just keeps getting better to the point where I don’t know if I want Willa or be her. The banter and family dynamics here were hilarious as well (big shoutout to Harvey for the ‘innocent’ blowjob jokes). Currently rushing to Jasper and Sloane as we speak.
