i don't know how to feel about this book tbh. it wasn't what i expected at all. i was all into the whole murder mystery thing and that's why i chose this book and i must say, i was really disappointed when 90% of the book was just the mmc and fmc flirting around, having (almost) sex and myles having his "i cannot have her, i'm not husband material, no strings attached / i want her so bad, my heart flutters when i see her, i want her to have my kids" inner monolog. i also didn't feel the chemistry between him and taylor in the beginning because it all just happened way too fast and was mostly about the sex and how gorgeous talyor's body is. i started to like the book more about halfway through and the epilogue was cute, too. one thing that particularly annoyed me: myles on the cover does not look like myles as described in the book and i hate that. what's with jude and dante? i would've liked more info on that! anyways, it was an okay read with great spice (very great spice) but definitely not one i'd read again or recommend to my friends with all my enthusiasm because the mystery part just wasn't enough for me.
