lighthearted medium-paced

3.0

So this was run of the mill for this author. It was 20 hours long and really didn’t need to be. FMC has an awful family throughout the book. That situation was solved… kinda. Things came to a head and then we, the reader, never heard anything else about it. Even in the epilogue, which happened YEARS later. The relationship was cool. The spicy scenes were above par, but this could have easily been a 12 hour listening experience, instead of 20. Spice 3.5/5 🌶️ storyline 2.75/5 📚

I absolutely loved how this book was the same timeline as Pucking Around, and we got to see different points of view. Having previous main characters show up was comforting and reminded me why I love these books/characters so much 😍 Poppy, Colton, and Lukas were 🥵 together and their relationship is beautiful with lots of self reflection and growth. BUT it did sort of feel like I was re-reading Rachel and her guys' story. Same vibes, similar situations. This series is definitely a favorite of mine.
