Right. I wanted to love this. Really, really wanted to. The setting is great. The writing is solid. The men were adorable. I'm a fan of the whole 'running away to somewhere new because my life is a hot mess'. I just could not get past the reason why our FMC Daisy ran. Maybe this is just me being naive, but the degree of implosion her life faced just didn't match the instigating event. The volume of stares. The fact no one believed her. Brighton is not that small - I couldn't believe the degree of hassle she was getting (or that it would happen when she went to Sweden as well). I also felt like she should have had some initial hesitation over
getting with the mountain men - she's been burned for her sexuality so recently I expected her to doubt the intentions of the men when they first made a move
. Like I said, maybe this is just me being very naive, but I struggled suspending my disbelief and it got in the way of what was otherwise a really enjoyable read.

I'll happily give this author another go.

This is the first time I have read someone being described as a troll doll, funny!

Most of the characters were lovable but had their own issues. I wasn't a huge fan of Riven,
twice he refused to hear the other side of the story. It almost got Daisy killed.


I wouldn't call it Insta-love, but the FMC fell for them rather quickly. It's already an unconventional way of dating, so when love comes so easily it tends to make it feel undeveloped.

I appreciated how the author gave each MMC a decent amount of time with FMC. Some harem romances tend to focus on one MC and let the others sit in the background for a chunk of it. 

There are a lot of errors in the digital format, mostly grammatical errors and repeated phrases.

I really enjoy everything of Lily Gold’s that I’ve read :) I will say I think this was probably my least favorite of them but I’m not exactly sure why - maybe I didn’t like the setting quite as much of the character development or smth I’m not sure but did still enjoy reading it :)

Absolutely OBSESSED 😍😍 By far, my favourite Lily Gold book 

"But Hanna, she just writes the same book in a different font every time!" Yeah and I eat it up every time

Daisy and her boys had me hooked right from the start and I flew through this book. Especially Cole and Riven are very hesitant to have her stay at first but are still immediately protective over her — they just can't help themselves.

We get a lot more of the (platonic) relationship between the guys in this book and you could tell that they really had history together and cared about each other deeply. 

Their relationship progression was really natural and in the end, Cole, too, got over his shit and joined in the fun 😉

Daisy's been through a lot back home and when the guys figure it out, there's some drama but I think it was all understandable given their past relationship and they all made it up to her in the end.

Really can't complain about anything ❤
