This was a well-written, sexy, steamy, forbidden romance. I loved meeting Tyler Statler as a college student after his introduction in Dibs. I loved watching Tyler and Hayden fall in love, and was on the edge of my seat waiting for the inevitable, when someone would expose their relationship. My only criticism was Tyler's decision to give up his dream job to stay home with Hayden. I understand not wanting to be away from his boyfriend, but six months wouldn't have been that huge a sacrifice, and would have been a huge addition to his resume...not to mention the opportunity of a lifetime!

Kind of missed the mark. I liked the concept, but parts of this felt lazy. While yes, the ending is predictable the book itself felt blah.
I liked the anonymous hook up, then surprise of being student/professor.
The book started with an FYI that there’s previous books in this universe that would possibly benefit but I ignored. I got everything that was needed in the relationships with this one.
The sex was good, and I enjoyed all of the spicy sneaking around.
I didn’t feel the love and the buildup of the relationship. It was just hot passion and forbidden moments. I would have liked more on the characters and all that, not just sneaking moments and spicy hookups.
When Hayden meets Tyler’s parents after graduation, Hayden goes off with Tyler’s dad for a talk and they come back besties after the dad’s hesitation of the relationship. We didn’t see that conversation at all? Which felt lazy.
It was fine, passed the time and I enjoyed the characters so I likely will continue the series maybe but overall meh.
