It's difficult for me to rate this book because when I started this book I had high expectations and for the most part I liked the book but there were also parts that I didn't like. It was a bit cheesy at times but it was bearable. However at 60 something % of the book I just felt it kept dragging and having unnecessary scenes that didn't get the plot moving. This could have easily been around 300 to 400 pages and be perfect, instead it dragged for almost 600 pages.

Let's take about positives and negatives:
Positives:
- The MMC was a golden retriever
- How the MMC tried to make the FMC trust him
- Hank and Dublin 💜
- The friendship between the men
- How fluffy some scenes were

Negatives:
- How all of the sudden the FMC was everything MMC wanted
- MMC never wanted a relationship however he changed his mind in 0.5 seconds because she didn't want a one night stand.
- How the FMC was not like other girls. This trope annoys me because unless they have an amazing personality it doesn't really work 90% of the time.
- The million times they mentioned how tiny the FMC was and how huge the MMC was. One or twice would have been enough.
- Making Olivia's whole personality being short.
- The third act conflict was annoying, confusing and completely uninteresting. It needed more substance.

I'll read the other books for sure because I wanna see what happens with the next couple and then Adam's story because he's a sweetheart but I really hope they don't drag as much as this one.
