Seal the Deal is a sweet and romantic story of two strong people getting a second chance at love. Jake is swoony and just all in straight from the get-go because he has been in love with Charlie since they were teenagers. 

Charlie, on the other hand, has been hurt, and it shows. She's rebuilding her self-confidence whilst showing her kids that they deserve love and affection. 

This was well written, but it did get a bit repetitive when Charlie would lose her confidence and take it out on Jake. There were a lot of trust issues, then reassurance and rinse and repeat. I do feel like that is maybe a bit of a me problem though, because I don't like wishy-washy flip-flopy FMCs, and it felt like Charlie was like that. 

But otherwise, a pretty solid debut!!

Favourite quotes:

Only with them though. It’s the group dynamic the three of them have going on. Their teamwork makes my wet dreams work.

“And I show up to not one blind date, but three. All of whom are my fucking bosses. Cupid is an absolute dirty fucking cunt.”

This was such a wonderfully weird horror/thriller erotica (?)!! I enjoyed every second of this heartbreaking story! I know it was a novella, so the background wasn't the priority here, but I would love more of why the boys hated Lilith. But the way this is written: *chef's kiss* - the way Lilith changes, the way she starts to influence the boys, the way they finally realise that there's no escaping. Aah, this was really so, so good!
