Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read and review this book before release.

☆ grumpy/sunshine

☆ insta love

☆ bounty hunter and private investigator 

This is my second Katie Ruggle book and definitely won’t be my last!

Felicity and Bennet are complete opposites and just so great together. 

Just overall and really fun, steamy, suspenseful romance and I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

Thank you to Love Notes PR and Sophie Snow for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

☆ LGBTQ rep

☆ sex pact 

☆ no third act breakup

☆ he’s wanted her for years

This was such a special book to me. Like Jazz, I’m 30, pansexual, a Scorpio who cries a lot and I still don’t really know what I’m doing. 

Jazz is maybe one of the most relatable main characters I’ve ever read. I love her so much. 

Liam is equally wonderful. He’s so kind and understanding and patient with Jazz when she needs him to be. 

The story was great and really well paced. The side characters actually felt important and not just there. I loved Maggie and Cal in Legally Binding so to read more about them and see what they were like after being married was so nice. 

I absolutely loved this book. It’s one I’ll be reading again for sure.
