First In by Danika Bloom
3.0
3.5 STARS
I really liked the characters in this book. The leads were really complex and fun. At times Sophie (the lead female) was all over the place as far as her character traits. Hers was the only inconsistent character narrative.
The heat between the leads was sizzling hot, but their romance also had a sweet side which I loved. You are really rooting for these two to come together in the end! I really love a romance with side characters that step in as "family" when the main characters' blood relatives are awful.
This book lost stars because there were a lot of plot points fighting for main arc in this story. It was a bit distracting. There are complex family relationships with both leads, a lawsuit, social media drama, issues with the workers within the fire station, workplace gender bias, housing remodels, financial woes, DNA tests and results, a mismatch in sexual experiences between the leads, a premature death, a potential assisted death, and more. I think this author would have greatly benefited from focusing on 2-3 of those major plot points and saved the rest for another book.
If you like a lot of story and some seriously steamy scenes then you will love this book.
I received an ARC of this title from the author in exchange for an honest review.
