The FMC is incredibly frustrating. I REALLY struggle with the miscommunication trope. Talking is key to a healthy relationship but instead this woman (Gemma) immediately assumed the worst every.Single.Time.  It's a bit exhausting.
Ben was a great MMC tho. No complaints there.

I'm giving one star for the first half of book. I should not have kept reading.

I think I'm going to put this book on pause. I'm not sure if I'm enjoying it or not. I think I knew from about halfway through what the outcome was going to be and instead of enjoying it I just have anxiety. Maybe I'll pick it up in the future and give it another go.

2.75 or 3.  I do love how fast pasced this book is. I had no idea what it was about but I assumed it was a demon fantasy and I was looking for a quick, silly Rom com. It was a lot more violent than I thought it would be. It had a lot of modern day speech as well. I still read the entire book.

Definitely got me interested in the actual book that is a continuation of this novella.

Maybe 3.5? This was adorable. But I felt like there was too much missing between them. How did the relationship get to an I love you stage? It was more like they listed after each other when all was said and done.

Ahh. It was a little long and it struggled to keep my interest. I did read the entire book and it was a sweet romance. Marvin needs to work on his mental for sure. He's 29 and multiple times runs away from something that makes him uncomfortable.

This was a cute read. The MMC was an actual decent man! It was so refreshing. Loved his kids, not a man whore. Not much for drama. The FMC was fine. I did find myself skimming through as I got a little bored.

I think I'm rating it higher than I should. This book fell flat. I first read latte Darling and thought it was such a fun read and I guess I assumed this I one would be as well but nope.

I might decide to up the Stars later I don't know. I'm not sure how to review or rate this book. I'm not sure why I'm struggling  did I enjoy it yes?

My first Tal Bauer book and I really enjoyed it. I'm not always a fan of jumping timelines but it felt ok in this book. I was actually surprised by the ending (bad guy)

I dunno how to rate this. I thought it would be a book about Mateo but was actually about Vera (who we learned about in a previous book). It was fine. I enjoyed the first two books? In the series and then I think I dnf'd a couple and then this book is sort of in between... it's all right.

Not sure. This was a slow story about a show burn romance. It was cute but I had to push thru for sure. The last 25% was much better. I'm not really a gamer so maybe it just didn't speak to me?

It started to feel like grief was their entire personality 😩. Like in 5 years she is still in such a horrible place and doesn't get help? I liked the MMC. He was very sweet if not just as bull headed.
