Oh that one was interesting and sweet

A p*rn star who met a shy college student.

One year after a hard separation, Skyler was slowly but hardly trying to get back on the dating scene.
P*rn star, Aiden, has his own fears, doubts and conclusions about relationships. He doesn't even venture into it. Besides, why venture out when you're a p*rn star? No one wants to date a P*rn star.

In this book, not much of a studio scene. The book is more focused on the evolution of the relationship between the 2 characters.

Read it and fall in love with a nerd who rambles and blushes over nothing. Also contains a dose of Aiden's masculine, protective, and slightly dumbed-down nature.

The whole thing has a sweetness, a way of getting to know its characters that is incredible, we discover them with a smile in their face and we all want to adopt a Skyler.

More schummy than that, I would have looked like someone who takes pills that make you laugh.

Wow! Talk about falling in love with the cutest character!!!

Skyler loves to ramble, so when he meets the one guy he fantasizes over, he is one bumbling mess, until Aiden breaks through the rambles and damn they are cute together!!!

But when Skyler assumes that the relationship is progressing, Aiden isn’t capable of reciprocating... or is he?

Chapter 8 is sure to light your pages as it heats up

I was impressed by this delightful little gem.

Skyler is such a sweet, awkward, adorable man I just wanted to hug him and keep him. He’s prone to the most delightful rambles when nervous and is an introvert. Lucky he has his best friend Zoey, who has no filter and comes up with hilarious nicknames, to get him out and about. Skyler also carries over some insecurities from a past relationship.

Aiden is super confident in himself and just oozes charm and sexual magnetism. He doesn’t date/have second dates, do sleepovers and, due to his parents, has a skewed perception of love.
When they meet there is instant chemistry but they take their time and slowly develop that immediate connection. Then the heat level rises dramatically.
With just a touch of angst along the way, they do get their HEA.

This well written little gem left me with a smile on my face and I recommend it if you want a low angst, sweet romance with all the feels.

Decent read. I mostly liked the characters fine. (You'll see why mostly in a bit.) The story was mostly just a sweet romance. It moves quickly but doesn't feel terribly insta-lovey to me. The think that bugged me was the melodrama. The misunderstandings. It just felt....shallow and ridiculous. Also, Skyler cries. A. LOT. Nothing wrong with crying. But it happens SO MUCH. I promise I'd say this about a female character too. He cries over nothing. He cries when he's sad. He cries when he's happy. He's a crier. Ugh. I liked his bestie 98% percent of the time. Aiden's occupation doesn't actually impact the plot. At all. I didn't like how that part ends really. It was out of the blue and I wasn't a fan of the message it sends. So yeah....decent read. Don't regret reading it.
