I loved the story, and the love-hate relationship the reader has with the characters. Sometimes they're hilarious, sometimes they make you want to stand up and applaud them, and other times you just want to punch them in the face, and by the end of the book, you just love them. Despite the seedier aspects of their relationship (comments on that below), the best part was Aiden's character development as he went from cold hearted confirmed bachelor to loving devoted husband. Definitely got me in the feels every time it described how happy he was to see her just coming to his office. 

1 star off for the language. I'm not a prude, but it was over the top, like she was trying to break the world record of how many times the f-word appears in a book. Definitely didn't appreciate the p-word, either. It's tasteless and offensive and it made the sex scenes that were otherwise well-written read like I imagine a porno would be. Gross.
