This was such a funny, sweet story. The chemistry and banter between the main protagonists was great. I loved how they just got each other. There was a lot of emotions in this book, some that made me cry, others that made me laugh out loud. Lots of family connections and bonds. This would have been a 4 star if not for

how it ended. How Melany randomly comes to conclusion that Beat did trust her and that she she "didnt see it." Thats ridiculous. She was right for feeling what she did and its true he chose to hurt her then not tell her the trurth after. I felt it went against what her character was like, how she went back on that. But whatever, am glad it ended happily. The reason they moms reunited was great. How they teamed up to protect their kids, even if the one hadn't really been a great mother. How that one is trying. It was touching.

This was fine, and the sexy scenes were solid. Although, omg, in the beginning when the book was hinting about

Beat's sUpEr wEiRd sEx tHiNg, I thought it was going to be something like, very unique that I had not heard of in the world of kink. It was just edging!!!!! Like!!!! The book made it seem like he could only get off drinking human blood or something! ALSO it sounds like Ms. Bailey didn't even do a medium Google on kink because the whole way Beat went about it, making Melody feel terrible in the process, was awful!

Also, I really really could not believe that I was supposed to buy that Beat is a real name that was going to be said during sex lol. Also you CAN have a Beat without a Melody, sir. The plot was fine, but the ending

seemed abrupt.

I adored this book! The concept, the characters, the plot all amazing!! Beat and Melody have amazing chemistry and their wacky antics made this book what it is! I just feel like the end kinda drops off. There isn't really a resolution with the main plot of the story (at least not a satisfactory one). I think an epilogue would have been beneficial but otherwise its great!

This is such a great read. You know pretty early on where this is going to go, but going through all the twist will drive you crazy. I love how it explores different sexual dynamics than you usually get from these types of book on top of just learning to grow from trauma.

This book moved too slowly (most of it) and moved too fast (the ending). I would have liked a lot more of the moms too be honest, as their story was much more interesting!
I'm not much for fated mates, which this was, or insta love, again that's this.
It was spicy, which I liked, plenty of sex scenes, but the rest of the story was just meh.
