“Sex in public is as good as I thought it was going to be but the aftermath is decidingly less glamorous.”
Yep. That quote did indeed Sun it up for me. Lol
I started off intrigued. Then got excited and some of the scenes or where it was gonna go… but then it was just blah. I also thought the pacing was interesting. Did I know this was going to end in a 2000’s rom com ending… no I did not.
The whole storyline, uhm wasn’t bad but the book is what it is a slightly spicy rom com type of bit. Don’t go in expecting anything other than that. The ending is probably the spiciest. Appreciate the safe sex, consent conversations that put male character had during scenes.
A socialite and a porn B rated porn star become roommates through a mutual. She finds out what his job is and decides to watch his videos and pleasure herself. To which he walks in on her!! The middle is a crap ton of dry humping as she becomes his silent partner in a female pleasured centered website. THENNNNN THEY FALL IN LOVE! 😐 Finally at what I thought was the end they get it on an poppin in a stairwell. Only for me to sit through two more chapters.
I dragged through the end but I finished it. A good entry into spicy if you haven’t tried it. There is a lack of diversity sooooo don’t think there is going to be that. It could have ended for me in Chapter 36. 🥴 I mean I get it but nahhh it coulda ended.
I am also seeing just now this is a series. Uhm 😐 it’s giving 50 shades. Then ending also has a “2 years later.” I could have done without.
All in all 3 stars baby
