2nd in the Pucked series even though each book can be read as a standalone.
I definitely enjoyed this one - read it all in a day which I think is becoming a regular with Helena Hunting’s work. It’s also a short book at just over 300 pages so a good quick read
It was nice seeing into Miller and Sunny’s lives as they were only introduced in book one.
However I didn’t find the couple as entertaining as Alex and Violet. The problems the relationship had got quite repetitive quite quickly as it was the same problem over and over again. I felt like the characters weren’t as fleshed out as in the first book so I found connecting to them a bit harder.
However great rep for people with learning disabilities in the book, and I liked seeing that covered in a romance.
There’s some really good examples set in this book. Helena Hunting is becoming a favourite of mine for open communication in her books not only about sex and consent before the act but also during, and keeping up a constant line of consent is really great to see.
The sex scenes definitely had steam - I’d put it between a 15 and 18 movie rating - but again I felt more chemistry and pazzaz from the first books couple. There’s definitely less sex in this book which is probably a positive or a negative depending on your personal preference 😂
Overall definitely an enjoyable read with some really sweet moments as well as some steam
