What a great start to the new year! I completely devoured this. The banter, the looming mystery, the spice, and even better... no third act breakup or miscommunication 🙌 this is definitely a series I will be continuing.

While I liked the characters and the storyline, there were a TON of issues with the writing style that made this really hard to get into. There were so many times I had to go back and read a couple of pages to make sure I understood what was happening, and even then, I found it wasn't clear. The tense also kept switching between past and present which is one of my biggest pet peeves in fiction. 

That being said, I liked how everything tied together at the end, the chemistry between the leads was great, the Foxx family was a lot of fun, and I learned some neat things about bourbon!
