The Good
I was excited to see the romance between Anthony and Gwen after seeing a tease of his crush on her in the previous book. Anthony is my type of grump: silent and just not good at expressing himself. I prefer that over dickhead masking as grumpy any day. He also has the "he falls first" and pining that I absolutely love. The chemistry between him and Gwen was excellent!

The Bad
I really wished the love revaluation came sooner. While it can't be categorized as slow burn really and I understand why it was drawn out for that dramatic confession, it was really frustrating to read at times. Especially since it felt unrealistic for two grown adults sleeping with each other to have a real conversation about their feelings about each other. Also, the word "synchronous" was used as meaning that the couple was fated or something and in my opinion that is the least romantic word to use. The word 'serendipitous' would've been perfect or even 'fortuitous'. I think I had a critique like this for the last book with just weird word choice that confused me.
