Common Goal by Rachel Reid
3.0
lighthearted

I didn't hate this book, but I didn't love it either. I feel similarly as I do to Tough Guy, the third book in the series. I didn't connect with Kyle and Eric all that much. I did like seeing Scott and Kip again, though. Age gap is also one of my least favorite tropes, so that's automatically some points against this book for me. Although, I will say it was nice that the youngest here was twenty-five, so still an actual adult.

One thing I did enjoy is how much steamier this book is compared to the others. While the previous books were definitely focused on sex, this one really was.
And also way kinkier. I feel like the author did a great job with it and the scenes were really hot.


Overall, I'd recommend this book if you like the age gap trope, but I probably won't be revisiting this one.
