I am so glad my friend Amy recommended me this book! The dynamic between Jordan and Pike is so interesting and I found myself feeling frustrated along with them. Pike is also such a loveable character and the journeys of guilt he goes through is so heartwarming. His speech and the end too just had me it was perfect. I usually don’t fall for the male character (usually just on an obvious sexual vibe) but man I fell for Pike Lawson, I’d like one of my own please. The spice was lovely and at a tasteful level (there could be more though). I did cringe at a couple of moments during the book I did cringe a little hence the 4.5 rating.
