4.0

The setup and beginning of this book moves so quickly it gave me whiplash; getting Wells and Josephine together requires a lot of "romance reasons" and some eyerolls. But once they're together, the pace slows down and the action heats up.

Tessa Bailey is always good at dialog and communication between the characters; and she cranks the spice up to 11 in this one (spoiler-but-not-a-spoiler: there's butt stuff).

Good for readers who like:
  • Grumpy sunshine
  • Banter and dialog
  • Strong communication between characters (we don't waste any time with misunderstandings)
  • Both characters grow and complement each other
  • An alpha male who breaks down doors (literally) and walls (emotionally) 
  • Career elements folded in organically (good if you like or want to know more about golf)
  • Spice with a capital S-E-X

Overall, a strong balance of romance, love, lust, partnership, and smut.
