This story was super cute! I adored Crew and his relationship with his daughters. I thought that him and Tenny were really cute together and I liked how their easy friendship turned into love. I liked the side stories for how both Crew and Tenny became who they are.
There were parts of the story where I felt like things were being told rather than shown. Like when we ended a chapter with Crew about to initiate intimacy and then started the next chapter with Tenny talking about all the fun they had the night before going on a date and spending the night together. I think actually getting to see those scenes would have strengthened the story and made me even more invested in their story.
Overall I thought this was really good and it was a fun read!

This was a super sweet friends to lovers. It’s not my favorite troupe but I really loved Breaker. The Cain brothers really are just so amazing.

This book wrapped up the story started in book one so well!! I enjoy this little duet so much. The story kept me at the edge of my seat the entire time and I felt like I couldn’t get enough. I love that we got the HEA and actually got to enjoy it for more than one or two chapters. Their love is so sweet and unique and I just loved it.
I am very excited to read books 3&4 now that I know who they’re about.
