Now that's how you do a closed-door romance! It's no surprise I like my smut in romances, so knowing this was closed-door, I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did! The banter between Amelia and Noah was what made this book so great. You didn't need smut because their banter was so fantastic. Noah's sisters and Mabel were also amazing. I ordered PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT when I was about halfway through this and I can't wait to be back in Rome, Kentucky! 

Favourite quote: "Sometimes a woman is just worn out and needs a break, you know?" The lines on her forehead deepen. "That doesn't prove that you're weak or neglectful, it proves to all the women standing by and watching you pave the road to success that it's okay to say no. It's okay to shut your door every now and then and put up a sign that says Busy taking care of me today. Piss off."
