I was really liking this book in the first half, but the second half just fell apart for me. There was so much happening that just felt pointless, and I actually got very annoyed at the I felt as if this book was trying to push the boundaries and hit all the triggers and it just made me uncomfortable because they didn't feel necessary. It just became sort of a grab bag of triggers: sexual assualt, pregnancy, kidnapping, stalking, sex tapes, drug/alcohol addiction.... Our main female character was this spunky, funny person and then all this dark stuff was just thrown in. It just didn't fit to me.
Spoiler
false positive pregnancy test. It just felt so flippant and unnecessary and triggering for anyone who experiences infertility.

Ok wow so I had read to love Jason Thorne and that was iconic and amazing I loved it soo much but I didn’t think a book could be better then that. Boy was I wrong to hate Adam Connor is wow it was so cute and sweet but it wasn’t your typical contemporary romance there were times when I was like what the actual heck just happened . I also love how it’s a dual POV because it’s just so cute especially in the beginning to see what they are both thinking after certain things happen. Also Lucy wow such an amazing bad ass female character that girl is hilarious and doesn’t let anyone push her around or hurt her ie. . She is in no way a weak female mc that needs saving and I loved that about her. Then you have Adam and how protective and good he is to his son (swoon🥰) husband material right there. Overall just an amazing enemies to lovers book that I could not put down. Ella Maise you really did out do yourself. If you haven’t read to love Jason Thorne and are thinking of reading this book first I recommend reading to love Jason Thorne first because you do have those characters in this book and it does help fill in some blanks but it’s not necessary if you only want to read this one. But I say read them both it’s soooo worth it
Spoiler
like when adam had Lucy arrested after she legit saved his son from drowning, or when Lucy was almost RAPED, and then there was when Adeline fulling went off the hinges and was going to hurt Aiden to save her career 😡, or when Lucy was pregnant with jamesons baby like WHATSpoiler
how she kicks her attempted rapists ass all by herself because she’s a baddie that doesn’t need to be saved
