Yay my first book of the month! Honestly I thought this was really cute. I mean, sure, it was a bit too horny at first, but who wouldn’t be after abstaining from sex your whole life and then BAM ya got somebody who is full on seducing you. Bro didn’t stand a chance. However, I just feel like I didn’t fully connect with it or like it was just lacking something. Like, I don’t know, for all that Esme was like “Oh no how am I going to tell him about my daughter what will he think of me?”, I felt like it was maybe a bit too quickly resolved? I mean, obviously there were other issues at hand but still.
