This book took my least favorite trope in romance novels and dialed it up to the MAX. Insta-lust removes any possibility for tension in these books, especially if it's dual POV and you just go back and forth between two horny individuals thinking the most outrageous things. Cause what do you mean you have "swollen folds" just from some heavy eye contact???? EW! 

Anyway, this is probably a "not for me" thing, but that allosexual nonsense was too much for me. From the moment they meet, it never stops. 

However, two stars for other aspects that I really liked in the book (a cute cat and the positive representation of a HEA that involves two MCs who want to remain childfree together!).
