This book was good!! I love a story that makes me feel something and this one broke my heart and pieced it together again.

The writing lacks maturity and there are so. many. cringeworthy lines. There are quite a few instances of things I’ve seen in other CoHo books (plot points, characters, tragic backstories etc.) which makes the story fairly predictable. I’ve read worse smut, but that’s definitely not to say that the smut in this book is good. Miles is a walking red flag (which Tate literally says herself!) and the prose-poetry style of his chapters comes off as clever for maybe two pages before quickly becoming exhausting to read. We’re seriously meant to be rooting for this guy? Not to mention that his insta-love obsession with his STEPSISTER reads as extremely creepy (and in the immortal words of Shane Madej, “anytime you have to say ‘it’s not incest technically’ that’s not great”).
In short, the only reason I read this book in two days was because I wanted to be done with it that badly.
