4 ⭐ How is this story adorable and sexy all at the same time????

I've seen so many people on Booktok and Bookstagram rave about The Kiss Quotient, so I finally decided to give it a go. And let me tell you . . . I LOVED IT!!!! In fact, once I started, I couldn't put it down! Seriously, I started it at 9pm and finished it at 1am.


So why did I love it so much?


Stella and her perspective as a multidimensional person with Asperger’s syndrome. I haven't read many stories where one of the main characters has autism spectrum disorder, so this was a wonderfully eye-opening experience. And since half the story is in Stella's POV, we are really able to understand who she is, how she operates, and the challenges she faces.

I also appreciated that Stella's Asperger syndrome doesn't drive the story. Yes, it's an important part to her character, but the real conflict has to do with her parents pressuring her to get married and have babies as well as her insecurities about sex. Stella's problems are very normal, and in fact, I bet most of us have had to deal with these same ones.


Michael and Stella make the cutest couple. You wouldn't expect a male escort and an econometrician to fall in love but here we are. I don't even know how it's possible that their relationship is sweet, yet damn sexy all at the same time! I love how Michael is so patient with Stella and always very considerate of her needs, and how Stella is caring and honest with Michael. The absolute respect and complete acceptance they offer one another is something to envy. Seriously, these two are perfectly made for one another, and it makes me so happy knowing they're off living their happily ever after in this fictional book world.

"Michael was mint chocolate chip for her. She could try other flavors, but he'd always be her favorite."

This quote made my heart melt. ❤️ Oh, and let's not forget that Michael calls her "My Stella".
