Desire was a quick and enjoyable read that kept me hooked from start to finish. The communication and development between the characters were strong, making the relationship between Desire and Mayor Aziel Harris believable and engaging. The honeymoon scenes were spicy and full of passion, adding a nice intensity to the story. While Mayor Harris occasionally made me cringe with his sneaky and controlling tendencies, he ultimately proved to be a good man and a dedicated single parent. His daughter, Azaria, was absolutely adorable, and her bond with Miss Chambries (the FMC) was heartwarming. I appreciated the positive portrayal of a stepmom relationship, which added depth to the story. The narration by Aria Addison and Chance Smolders was excellent, enhancing the overall experience with their compelling performances. Overall, this was a solid installment in the Arranged Hearts series, and I’m looking forward to reading the rest!
