A sexy burst of fun! This book had me giggling, squealing, and smiling like an idiot from the very start. I adored the disability representation and the BDSM rep. As an Autistic person who needs to have lots of pressure to experience pleasure, the conversations surrounding accessible play in this book had me on the verge of tears. Not to forget, the sex scenes were AMAZINGLY written!! This book does have a subplot of the love interest’s abusive ex-girlfriend returning and publicly humiliating him, so please be cautious about that. Although this book is lighthearted and inspiring (tell me you don’t want to try rope play after this) I want everyone to be aware of any potential triggers! Seeing Jay deal with his abusive ex and work to overcome the harm she caused him was very therapeutic as a guy who has also been in abusive relationships. Overall, I’m ecstatic that we, as disabled people, are finally getting romance stories that show we have always been, and will always be, sexy as fuck! We’re allowed to have sexual desires and have sex without being infantilized by non-disabled people. We’re allowed to be the main characters of our stories and get brilliant happy endings! I highly recommend this book if you’re looking for books about kink, books with great disability rep, or even if you’re just looking for romance books that have multiple delicious sex scenes. Happy reading!
