Genuinely surprised how much I liked this book considering it was a straight romance book and not my normal queer ones. I think a lot of that reason is because the main characters were genuinely good people who actually had interesting backstories. Nathan's character was really sweet and I loved his relationship with Tara + Mick especially because there was no stupidity around him not being able to handle his mom dating or Mick not liking Nathan. I actually teared up at the end of the book.

Honestly, not a lot happened in terms of a plot. Most of it was sex, break for a few pages to talk about life, and sex again. I actually would've liked to see them have more cute relationship moments because they were interesting, but the whole plot is about them being a one night stand situation so I can't say I expected much else.
