I thought that the dynamics of the different personalities were fun to read and also how they navigated their differences and acknowledged their similarities. I liked the pace of the book and thought that it was perfect not too slow and not too fast

Gostei muito de como abordaram as pautas raciais das mais diversas representatividades, as questões de confiança, de corpos, de vulnerabilidades psicológicas e sociais...

Adorable. I wish it was a smidge spicier but there’s truly nothing to complain about here. I love that this has all the trappings of a good rom com without the standard tropes, it sorta starts with a fake dating trope but it’s immediately tossed out the window, these people know what they want! The instant gratification is a pleasant change from the norm. Very cute!

This was enjoyable to read. I thought it was interesting to start the book with the two mcs meeting and I wish they communicated better (major are we dating or are we not dating back miscommunication that felt really stupid) but their relationship was cute.  overall this is just a basic fake dating romance so no complaints from me

 The chemistry and banter between Drew and Alexa was so fantastically done 😍 It was a quick read and I loved all of the characters so I can’t wait to read the rest of Guillory’s books to revisit some of them (especially Carlos)!

The last chapter I started sobbing and had to put the book down to take a breath. THIS DAMN BOY HAS STOLEN MY HEART 💗 The miscommunication was frustrating at times but overall it’s a great book!

Spice: 🌶🌶 (2/3)
