Age-gap. Student-headmaster. Daddy kink. And some definite class warfare and “different rules for the rich” vibes galore in this one. But I did enjoy the way that Cal and Gideon fit in each others gaps, and made each other better people.

I really struggled to get into this one. There was just so much going on, and it was all so OTT, that I kind of lost the point of the story and ended up with a headache.

This book was super hot and I liked the older/younger guy, headmaster/student taboo thing, but outside of the sex scenes I kinda just skimmed. It wasn’t a bad story, but I just never really got into it. This author writes pretty good stuff, so I'm sure I will read more of her's in the future.

I liked this book although the drama came from the secondary cast and their villainy was unrealistic. Narrator was mediocre.

always amazing
I’m not at all shocked when I love and Onley James book. I don’t think can can write anything bad. This story was so much more than I was expecting it to be. An age-gap, student/headmaster romance with a mystery twist. Callum and Gideon were absolutely perfect together. The way they cared for each other, I mean it was basically love at first sight. Daddy dom and a sweet little cinnamon roll.

I eat too much. I don't sleep enough during the week, and on the weekends, I sleep too much. I definitely don't exercise or move my body enough. On the whole, I am decidedly as unhealthy as one can be sans diagnosed ailment or disease.
To add to that, apparently, I also read shit like this, all the way through. If there was ever a question, it has nothing to do with the amount OR type of spice in the book, for I will never feel bad for reading about that. It simply has to do with the fact that this was extremely poorly written with wooden characters and an achingly stereotypical setting/plot. I did read the whole thing though, and as we've established, being motivated and/or disciplined is not exactly my forte, so I must have found at least some fascination in the story?

This was an inventive, if slightly unrealistic way, to turn my brain off. A decent time.
