Ugly by Roe Horvat

Re read because it's easy to read.

Keeping Denver by Crystal Daniels, Sandy Alvarez

1.25

A story of a homeless woman who gets with a rich guy who clearly is taking advantage of her situation and it's written as "romance". 
She lacks street smarts despite being homeless and he's a dick head who has a short temper and constantly crosses lines. 
Clearly the authors have never been or met someone who was homeless because half the shit they put the fmc through is sickeningly stupid especially her reactions. 
Oh and stripping a homeless woman naked and not giving her any new clothes is bordering on sexual assault.

Ben's Boss by K.C. Wells

I'm not a big fan of bully to lover stories. The story felt rushed and I'm my opinion Wade didn't make it up enough to Ben. 
I wish we saw more of Wade owning up to his past and how it affected others.

 Am i the only one who finds it weird how they kept talking about their sex life in front of their family members? So many times i had to pause and just think about how fucking weird it was.
