Solidly a middling book for me — while the sex scenes are largely enjoyable, the plot itself suffers from a lack of growth in some of its characters, and a heavy hand with "Buffyspeak" that was a bit hard to ignore until it dropped in frequency later in the book.

I can see how this would be a more fun read for others than myself, but it read quite similar to a sex pollen AU fanfic in some respects, and that's not always my cup of tea! A quick read, though, so nice to get through a small reading slump.
