Pretty explicit spicy scenes which I’m not totally opposed to in most books but was a bit much in this one. The love story was so intense so fast, but was sweet and I loved archer. The “villain” of the story was a bit over the top.
One part I’m not the most qualified to speak on but their communication via sign language felt too easy to me. I’m not fluent but some of the stuff they said back and forth I just couldn’t picture how they would say that in sign, especially if they were using correct asl “grammar”. Also think it would be hard to learn asl without being able to practice with other people or be involved in the deaf community but I guess Archer is just a genius and just magically masters everything
