I liked this couple at first and then I hated them. I honestly found Sabrina to be just awfully written. It felt like she was all over the place and I didn’t understand any of her actions or choices. My biggest criticism though is that there were some  weird scenes that made me uncomfortable while reading. I don’t think it was intentional but it was off putting but to put it simply she talks about how bad she wants to fuck Tucker while she’s looking at him holding their daughter and she says something along those lines and he has to readjust himself. I just felt like it was unnecessary to do that. Like I understand a man being a good dad is an attractive trait but like it was off putting. I also felt like this relationship was boring and lacked anything meaningful. It wasn’t slow burn, it was all that spicy, it wasn’t filled with anything but the most emotionally stunted and immature woman which is crazy because before she’s portrayed as this really cool, hardworking bad bitch. I don’t know. This one just didn’t hit. I loved The Deal but I hated Sabrina and Tucker.
