I ate this novella up. Once I started I just couldn’t put it down and I was definitely not ready for Wes & Lily’s story to end. I went in totally blind so imagine my surprise—and my excitement—when I noticed that the MMC was the FMC’s ex-boyfriend’s dad. The only thing that I wasn’t a really big fan of was the MMC calling the FMC “little girl”.

For those who want to know, the real fun begins in chapter 14 😏

This is an Advanced Reader copy. Although this book was given to me as an ARC my thoughts are my own. Thank you to Jenn Plummer and Luna Literary Management for the ARC opportunity!

I was pretty into this until the minor blood play which I quickly read past while gagging. Hard pass. Get these characters a safe word too, because “tap my leg” isn't enough. I'm usually totally fine skipping trigger warnings because they give away the plot but this time they should be read imo.
