[I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book]

“The Girl Who Jumped” by Matilda Swinney tells the story of Tilly and Sir. Tilly has experienced several failed relationships and decides to try something different. Rather than using a traditional dating site, Tilly takes her best friend’s advice and uses a site to find a more dominating type of relationship. This is where Tilly meets Sir. As Tilly and Sir go through this sub/dom relationship, Tilly questions her inner feminist and if she can continue pleasing Sir.

If you read this book, I recommend starting with the prequel, “The Texts Before We Met” because it gives a bit more context. I didn’t know the prequel existed until after reading “The Girl Who Jumped” but I think it would’ve been beneficial to read the prequel first. Although the spice didn’t hit the mark for me, I still enjoyed the plot. This is a good read for those who enjoy rom-coms, age gaps, and light BDSM.
