This is a great transitional book for when you're coming out of a dark book or long series.  Very fun, light, and short.  I had a good time reading it.

I thought it was a little weird how quickly Fallon seems to fall madly in love with Cinnamon but I didn't mind how it was explained later in the story.  They both had great banter between the two, there were moments I chuckled to myself out loud.  I loved the spicy scenes, I thought they were well paced throughout the book and very engaging.  I did find all the talk about Fallon's hot muscles a little overdone at some points.

The story itself was very fun.  I absolutely loved Felix and can't wait to read the next book.

As someone who doesn't particularly like reading Sci-Fi, this book has my heart.  My husband convinced me to read this as my first Sci-Fi book and I'm glad I did.  
My biggest issue with Sci-Fi is that I have a hard time grasping the scientific concepts, but this book kept things understandable and did a great job of explaining the concepts that Grace and Rocky were using.
I found both main characters easy to love, however flawed both may be.  I'm so glad that things ended the way that they did, even if it surprised me at first.
