This is one of my all-time favorite why-choose romances. I love the dynamic between these three. I also like that it's not your typical ex-military and ex-husband trope. I feel like typically the FMC is kidnapped by the ex-husband and the ex-military main character has to rescue her. I LOVE that that isn't the case here. I like that Marco, the dom, shows his sensitive side in multiple ways from his PTSD to taking care of Jay and Cora. I love how inclusive this book is as well, from different cultures, backgrounds, gender/identity, sexuality and much more! I also appreciate the FMC being heavier set and it not being her hole identity in the book. Overall, there are tons of things done perfectly in this book... I HATE that it ended on a cliffhanger and I'm impatient. Also... The SPICE in this book is top fucking tier.
