Gosh, this one felt like I grind to get through. I can’t count how many times I almost threw in the towel on this one.

I’m not enjoying this story now with Abby home. I cannot stand her “mama” and the preacher. Jed is annoying, as are the gossipy townspeople. And it seems like her father didn’t have a backbone until the surgeon must have inserted it after the tractor accident. Literally the only character I can stand is Aunt Mae. The only parts of this audiobook that kept me listening were when she left town (which were also the spicy parts, but that’s what we’re all here for anyway).

It seems that she won’t be at home much, at least to start the next book, so I’ll keep going with the series. But so far it’s all been pretty underwhelming. And I miss Ronan, I think he is the catch here and not Henry.

I want to see more character development from Abbi sooooo bad😣 I hate reading about her being this whiny, insecure girl with a perverted side to her being she can’t stop watching people fuck. Like seriously wtf is that about?! “It is making me extremely uncomfortable to be put in this position” yet she actively chooses to stay and watch people she doesn’t like or know for that matter, be sexually intimate with other strangers. ALSO, the constant disrespect she takes from other people whether it be family or people from her town and even Henry at times makes me wanna slap her straight. Is it really that hard to not be a people pleaser to people who are talking shit about you to your face and behind your back? Trusttttt that if I were in her position, I would’ve set those hypothetical mfs in their place for thinking they have a right to meddle in my personal life and feel like they have a right to comment about how im “not acting like myself” just people im not bending backwards to do their bidding. There’s just sm that could be done to help mature Abbi into the bright young woman that she is instead of writing her character as someone that’s so heavily dickmatized and can’t think for herself. Don’t even get me started on the man that she’s so obsessed about. There’s absolutely so romantic chemistry between the two mc’s other than their sexual attraction to each other and his rare materialistic acts of service. All they do is fuck, fuck, fuck. Ik this is an erotica but DAMN can there be one genuinely wholesome scene that actually makes me wanna root for the couple⁉️😭
