It wasn’t satisfying for me but it kept me guessing and thrown in loops so that’s something. Honestly I wish I could critique it properly but I have no idea if it was good. I just think the dialogues got dull and flat at several moments in the book that made me sigh and skip pages. In all honesty I don’t even think the book was all that bad. “But that nothing-special agent can go fuck himself. I mean if you’re gonna make it so long at least throw in some smut for your girl. Like this book was at least 150 pages too long.

“Uh, Jeremy? You’re not facing the TV.”īut god some parts were sooo boring. I let my arm slide around him and I carefully kissed his forehead near his scar. My arm was his pillow, and he snuggled into me. It was comforting and warm and all that gooey stuff. The relationship between Steve and Jeremy was sweet. The good was amazing and the bad was like watching paint dry. “And how you’re gonna lie on the couch with me.” “really appreciate you doing this,” he said after a while. I mean, all that muscle on Steve for nothing? All that cuddling and manhandling and picking up for nothing? Is that even legal? “He strummed a few chords, then sang, “Steve, Steeeve, Steee-eeeeve,” to the tune of Dolly Parton’s “Jolene.”Ĭan we just start off with the fact that blowjobs were the only smut I got here? I feel robbed. The next I was introduced to clingy and whiney Jeremy Even though I enjoyed some parts, I don't see myself rereading it. It dragged in some places and got repetitive at times. The other side characters were not that flashed out, though I need to mention two members of Steve's team, Riko and Robbie. Maddox still has the same level of maturity as Jeremy, but I liked their friendship. I have to say that I liked Roscoe here more than in his own book. I just couldn't take it seriously, especially how the stalker situation was resolved. The stalker subplot was very weak in my opinion and the storyline was too improbable. The rest of the story had too much drama for my liking.

Their relationship has to be one of the slowest slow burns ever. But they are sweet together and I liked their interactions. I liked Jeremy, even though he is very whiney and clingy, constantly needs taking care of and doesn't act his age. I really enjoyed the first half of the story or so.
