Birthday Girl

I loved this so much! It's right up there with Punk 57 for me.

I loved Jordan and Pike, loved their relationship and how it felt natural despite the age difference. I also liked how the conflict of Cole finding out was handled. Just loved it all!

people who claim this as their favorite book just weird me out man

so adorable. loved this book!

such an addictive book! I just finished this with the biggest smile on my face!
I did have some problems with it, hence why it isn't 5 stars lol

2.5 stars? not a fan of the trope, so this was my own fault

ex boyfriends dad trope is just sooooo good

I think this might be just because I don't like romance that I didn't love this. I couldn't help noticing the times when Pike was really possessive or controlling and it was never addressed. The time he picked her up and spanked her against her will? Nope. If scenes like that had been cut out, this could easily have been a 4 star book. All the scenes like that completely took away from the moments where Jordan (seemingly) put Pike in his place for being an asshole. They felt out of place and strange and made me not like Pike and Jordan together. They usually seemed to have a lot of chemistry and to be a good match, but then there would be these weird, jarring scenes where Pike blew up on her, and she often said “you're not my father” because he literally was treating her like a child. I don't know; the rest of it was fine but all the stuff I said really detracted from the story for me.

why every romance book has to end with a baby and marriage?

I thought this book was alright. The main character made some pretty rash decisions that showed her immaturity at times, which was frustrating.
