So this book made me realize that there is just something about a gentleman and a scoundrel falling for each other that is brain candy to me. I can list three other books that executed this in a way that I really enjoyed, from memory, and let me tell you, I'm not someone who tends to remember what she reads all that well.
Even aside from the dynamic being right up my alley, I just loved the way Jack and Oliver interacted. The differences in how they think about the world are immediately evident, and it quickly leads to them butting heads, but then that's followed by:
* a truly delicious scene of them fighting side by side
* Oliver sneakily trying to help Jack through discomfort
* Jack not so sneakily constantly trying to feed Oliver
* Oliver being a manipulative little shit (affectionately)
The fact that this is the author's debut makes me really excited to read more from her.
