Spoiler
Some things felt like we didn’t get a resolution to: June and Pez, June and Nora? It just felt like we had been given all the building blocks and didn’t even get the hint of an answer about any of them. the spice was great but it felt a little glossed over. Don’t get me wrong I don’t think all romance books have to have graphic details of sex in them but the way the writer wrote so graphically about everything leading up to the literal sex acts was the same as any good spice writer, but then it would gloss over the acts and describe the in-betweens and afters, I don’t know if it’s just me but maybe it’s because it’s a female author, writing about gay sex?Graphic: Outing
