This book was a very cute, but also very spicy read.
The fake dating trope turned very quickly, maybe a little too quickly, into not so fake dating, and while I appreciate the lack of a third act breakup, I felt like the plot was a little too straightforward and too little drama, which made it feel drawn out unnecessarily.
It was very spicy, but could’ve done with cutting some of the scenes out, as they felt a little repetitive,
Nonetheless I very much enjoyed the book and it was a fun palate cleanser for in between heavier books.
