Thank you Kensington Books and NetGalley for the eARC of this! 
I wish I'd enjoyed this more, but I had a hard time connecting to Ben and Adam's relationship. The first half dragged on because they wouldn't talk to each other and in the second half they were just 0 to 60, acting like high schoolers but making decisions like they'd been together for years. It was a fun read, though, and super quick and was truly just a matter of me not connecting with it.
