I love this book so much. But first, a trigger warning. The female MC is a journalist who is writing an investigative article about a sexual assault scandal at a club. OK, now back to business. A lot of bad things came out of the pandemic, but this book was one of the VERY good things. It's spicy. It's sweet. The pace never slowed. It didn't get bogged down in the conflict between the MCs. And because it starts off with a bang (a one night stand), I didn't have to read 200 pages of slow burn for the MCs to get together. So reader, if that's not your thing, don't come here to yuk on this book because it doesn't have your favorite romance tropes. As for me, tonight I'm going to dream about Alexander Kim and his luscious lips.

Good gravy, I’m pretty sure my kindle melted! This was scorchingly steamy in ridiculously romantic way. Alec Kim is a total freaking dreamboat.

I absolutely devoured this one!! I loved knowing that #IvyOwens is one half of #ChristinaLauren ! This was a super easy-to-read romance but I also liked the storyline behind the "scandal". It felt like there was more to the book outside of just the romance piece. My only issue was (believe it or not) a bit TOO much sex 🤣 Like I'm sorry but you break up and instead of having a romantic, heartfelt makeup, you just fuck? Just a tad hard to believe but I still overall had a blast reading this.🤍

i think it is a nice idea/concept but i didn't really give what it had potential to.
