Finn Rhodes, you praise king, dirty talker, soft-dom, you. I don't know if he's beat Wyatt for my favourite brother, but he's pretty darn close!

Praise kink hasn't done much for me in the past, but coming out of Finn's mouth?? Scandalously 🥵🔥🥵 Finn & Olivia have off-the-charts chemistry and their building slow-burn tension throughout the initial hate, disaster dates, rekindled friendship, towards eventually acknowledging their respective love...so well done.

"I didn't want to spend the rest of my life regretting that I wasn't good enough for you, and that I didn't even try."

Again, the Queen's Cove backdrop provided great small-town antics. I loved the tie-ins to the other books in the series, as well as the 'bad dates' at the doily museum or the spicy book club. I'm sad to leave (though I do have to circle back and read book 1...and it looks like perhaps Beck is getting a book?!), but I think these will be on the re-read list for me, for sure.
