Graphic: Infidelity and Sexual content
Moderate: Cursing
Minor: Stalking and Outing
Other possible content warnings: age gap relationship, minor stalking depictions (incessant phone calls & showing up unannounced/uninvited), some minor dominance play during sex, and a third party catching a couple during sex.
***
Light, fun erotica with just enough character depth and development to keep things interesting. All conflicts are resolved rather quickly and easily, but that’s the nature of this type of romantic fantasy.
I didn’t expect the arc about country music and songwriting. Not a turn off, just a surprise based on the “pool boy” premise.
