This was a truly interesting read, short and to the point it had a great leading plot of murder mystery with our main characters a bounty hunter and a tourist working together to find the truth.  

The forced contact of investigating together brings up a lot of feeling, past and present for our bounty hunter, and present and future for our tourist teacher turned investigator. 

Overall I did engage with the storyline and think it was a great storyline, what lost me was the sex fest throughout.  It is a Tessa Bailey book so that’s no surprise, but unfortunately it’s not for me so I think it’s unlikely I’ll revisit her books again.

A fun twist on a rom com! The mystery wasn’t all that difficult to figure out and definitely not the focus of the book. A very different plot line for this author and I really enjoyed the added mystery element. Don’t worry the romance and spice are still there!

i was not expecting this to be so cute and funny. at the same time, i get why people would hate it, lol—there was some cringe.

i don’t like dual pov but this one is fine—except all the smut is in his pov smh.
the writing is great! the couple is compatible (which i don’t always feel in romance books lbr) and aware of their own flaws and feelings.
