Resisting You turned out to be a surprisingly sweet and swoony read, considering the hate to love between Frey and Renato, and I loved it!
Frey and Renato were characters that I never thought I would see together, there were so much animosity between them, and some of their "pranks" were pretty mean. They both had a lot of hurt in their pasts, and I loved how they slowly got to see that there were more to the other one than what they first thought.
I was completely invested in these two right from the start, and I couldn't wait for them to discover and act on the attraction between them. Both of them had been so lonely, and it made my heart ache to realise just how they'd distanced themselves from the people who cared about them. The interactions between Frey and his son Rex were sweet and funny, and it was great to see how Renato understood and communicated with him. The three of them were just so sweet together!
The attraction between Frey and Renato was intense, and it was hot to see how much they both wanted each other. Frey really enjoyed when his doctor got all bossy, and I loved how he basically melted at the smallest hint of dominance from Renato. There were a bit of angst in the story, not a lot, but it felt kind of inevitable with these characters and their history. They weren't the best at communicating, and considering their start it wasn't too surprising, but it didn't take them long to work things out.
Resisting You was a phenomenal read, I loved how E.M. Lindsey wrote the hate to love between Frey and Renato, and it was great to see them both starting to heal together. This series has been fantastic so far and I can't wait for more stories about these single dads, their support and love for each other are just precious!
