I loved the banter in this book, especially from Creighton. They were my favourites. I enjoyed the story on the whole but I have mixed feelings around the shooting and kidnapping.

The overall story was great and personally I love a plus size fmc reputation, however, does it need to be mentioned 20times per chapter?

This was a lovely little novella. Well written and let's be honest we all have a "Derek" that we wish we were their "Abbie". I may have used a particular actor as my visual for Derek

I know it's a novella but this felt like the start of a great book. I also struggled to get past the bad editing of the book... what is naviSpencer and hLiam.  And oft instead of often? A quick spell check could have fixed those errors.

I struggled with the pacing at the start of the book. But once I got a couple chapters in I struggled to put it down. Looking forward to the next in the series.

This book was a lovely easy lighthearted read. I appreciated the increase in sexual tension as the book went on as it fit the story well
