i love an age gap.... except for when they talk about knowing the younger love interest when they were a child
Thanks to Ali and their team for the review copy! All opinions are my own <3
I love this zoo and this family!
Ali has given us another fun, chaotic zoo-mance but this time they decided to slap me in the face with emotions. I was literally crying at 1am finishing this book.
Hawk and Hannah are adorable and I was laughing, cringing in second hand embarrassment, and crying over their story.
100000/10 highly recommended
Pairings:
MF
Tropes and tags:
Animal puns, forced proximity, coworkers, secret identities, I'm supposed to find secrets to ruin you but instead I fell in love, oops, the hottest grump on the island, clumsy girl does clumsy things,
The smut and character interactions were good but as a whole it felt a little disjointed and inconsistent
love the magic system, love the characters, love the plot.
Absolutely hated the use of the word “shoot” in place of “come”. It made the characters sound like frat bros instead of the professors that they are.
Jeremey Wentworth has secured a place in my Top 5 Favorite Idiots. bless him.
i loved this book and it also has the BEST virgin sex representation i've ever read.
E.M. has a direct line to my tear ducts and my heart. I've not met a book by them that hasn't made me cry and this was no exception.
There are not many books that I can't figure out the plot twist before it happens. But this kept me guessing until the very end!
did you know that you could get gender euphoria and affirmation from smut? i didn't, but this book did that
i honestly dont know why i didn't dnf this sooner. it's very unlike me to push through books and i should have known that this book wouldn't be for me since one of the MCs was retiring from the military.
other issues:
who says size matters
This may be short but has big feelings. It really says something about an author when they can create a bond between two characters in such a short story without it feeling rushed. I'm obsessed.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am already in love with the whole Birds Eye family and this is just the first book! This has been the perfect sick day read; low angst, spice, beautiful character development, what more could you want!? I adored the relationship between Hawk and Drew but the connection that Hawk has with Ava absolutely stole the show for me. I can't wait to read the rest of the series
above and beyond
I added this book to my TBR as a palate cleanser for in between my fantasy reads or dark romances. I did not expect to start reading and go absolutely feral for this dirty talking, cinnamon roll of a man-brick.
I love the way Cal and Stella fit so perfectly and effortlessly together. They slip, stumble, and fall into each other in a very realistic and believable way that a lot of romance novels lack.
I LOVE THIS BOOK.I fell in love with Pye and Avirin in Feed and they are one of my favorite couples and I'm so glad they got their HEA in this book.
Smut was good but the relationship was solely physical. the “love” wasn't believable because there was no emotional connection
I fell in love with this book from the very first chapter. I relate to Olu on a soul deep level and I absolutely loved watching Olu and Griff grow as individuals and together. Talia never lets me down with her amazing mental health rep.
buddy listen with my sister. we were on the edge of our seat the whole time and that ending was ambiguous AF. we loved it.
