Dante pays his employees starting out $17 an hour $22 if they have experience. I know this because it was mentioned several times.

Even though this is a short story, I feel like it was too long.

I loved the first part with these two. They had an attraction, and hooked up, but it should have just ended there. Instead, there were several pages of filler info. And then they hooked up again, claiming they were just going to be friends with benefits.

But I feel like based on the filler info I don't believe it. And seeing how this series is supposed to be about casual encounters, I just felt like the author did too much.

Spice was good, the characters were likeable, I just don't care about chick going to the club in her work uniform, and Malik's sick mom. Also, I knew the moment she said dude was 23 that this wasn't for me. The fact that our FMC had to go back and forth with her mama about being out all night was cringe for me.

Again, for a short story I felt like the author did too much.
