I believe one of the reasons that Kayla's books are so impactful is because she is really talented at infusing very real emotions into her work. The characters feel very much like people I would want to know and love irl. It also helps that they are supremely horny in the best of ways! 😅 With this story, specifically, it really seemed as though she poured her own experiences into it, which made it that much more impactful. Such a great indie author you should completely spend your money on.🤗 #WorthEveryCent

Kit Rocha knows how to make it burn slowwwlllyyy, and then take it up about 1000 degrees!🔥 The relationship between Aleksi, Einar, and Naia was spicy and so romantic. 😍 I am not a fan of cliffhangers, but they have definitely left me wanting more in the best way. 🤤

This was my first Meryl Wilsner book, and I am a fan! I saw them at a book fest in February and was blown away by their smarts and hilariousness, so knew I needed to read something they'd written. Imagine my glee when I saw this book available for review. 🤗 This was such a swoony story about how love shows up, even when it's hard. It also proves that some of the most satisfying relationships come from starting out with friendship. And the sexy-times were 🔥🔥!😏
