Although I did enjoy reading this, I felt that it started to drag when halfway through the book. There was no spice scenes. It was just only banter and the tension building.

Then once the spice scenes, I started to lose interest, but it did bring me back, but towards the very end, I had to force myself to keep reading.

I think for me, it’s because it’s almost 500 pages and the first 300 are so pages weren’t tension building, but banter.

That being said, this was very good writing wise, since I did give up on the first book Because of how dry everything was, this book, felt more well written with their dynamic and the conflict.

I enjoyed it, but I don’t think I would reread this!

This was a cute read and I had a good time with it. The characters were good, the plot was decent, and it had a few tropes that I enjoy.

I love Lauren Asher's writing style so much because it's so easy to read. I loved the grumpy/sunshine troupe, even though Declan was a bit insufferable. I did enjoy it more than reading Fine Print.

I loved seeing Lauren doing a crossover scene with her Dirty Air Series. (The scene where Declan is watching F1)

I absolutely loved seeing Cal being a supportive friend.

I enjoyed this book so much more than the first one. I love the dynamic between Iris and Declan and although they may be toxic at times, I enjoyed the progression of their relationship. I love that Iris is the only one that can talk back to Declan and have him not retaliate. It shows that he cared about her long before their initial marriage contract. 

One thing I loved about this book over the first one was that there was only one break up rather than the two that was in Rowan and Zahra's book. I think the two breaks ups in the fine print was a bit excessive, so it was nice to only get one "breakup" between Declan and Iris. 

This book is also way faster paced than the previous one, which I was quite happy about. I found I didn't need to take at many breaks reading this book at I did with The Fine Print.

So overall, I highly enjoyed this book and would absolutely recommend. I'm excited to get into Cal's book.
