Thank you to Netgallery and Sourcebooks for an arc for a honest review.
What a disappointment. Since Husband Material is two years after Boyfriend Material, I would assume that the MC's would have gone through AT LEAST SOME growth?? Yet, they're STILL arguing over the same shit, yet on a bigger scale. The way Luc asks Oliver to marry him? The way that all the plot devices seemed to just shove along the two, and get them to the altar AND THEN THE ENDING?
You gotta be fucking kidding me. This book was SUCH a disappointment - and in my own opinion, it seemed to be just a money grab. The publisher and the author knows it would sell well, even if the content wasn't even great. I will be returning my copy.
