it was fine? i feel like we were missing a solid 50 pages of nuance and relationship development
i was looking at the tags for this book… who said it was slow paced? literally how? it’s missing like all of the relationship development that it could’ve had.

Incredible - I’m not usually a romance reader but I devoured this book in a day. Loved the quintessential shy girl and tattooed “bad boy” romance, with the right amount of cheesiness mixed in. The ending is a dream. I will have to check out more of Emily Blaine’s works!

Just what I like in a contemporary romance. Bookshop girl meet bad boy actor, we all know the way it goes but I love it! A bit of cheese mixed in with some steam which is always a good thing in my book. I enjoyed the setting & even swooned at the bad boy actor myself! Light easy read.

I enjoyed the cast (especially the supporting cast) and the village life setting. I generally love a tattooed bad boy! A good amount of character development, romance, and a dash of spice.
The writing felt a little stilted at times and I don't enjoy reading the tired 'she's not like the other girls' type narratives. All in all a light, easy read for a busy period in life.

All I liked about this book was cover, I mean seriously false sexual assault allegation is plot....seriously.
