It was nice to find a why choose romance that was not a dark romance. The book was good. It wasn't anything amazing. It was just a simple romance. The FMC is running away from something, and it frustrated me that the MMCs assumed it was for a bad reason. Once you get to that point in the book, it's understandable, but my mind went to 'what if she is running from an abusive partner or from grief.' It was just one of those plot devices where logic is put aside for drama.
I felt like the character's backstories and their motives were fleshed out really nicely. The book was surprisingly funny. The FMC was sassy and had some really funny one-liners. My favorites:
- "How do you know how to get blood out of clothes?” “I do this really odd thing, where I bleed out of my vagina for a week every month? I don’t know why, it’s weird. Now sit.”
- “I should be sucking the other guys off. Luckily, they’re both pretty tired out, so I’ve got a quick break from shagging their brains out. It’s tough work, being a walking, talking fleshlight.”
- “Why are you so small?” “I shrank in the wash.”
