It’s not bad. If you’re feeling this trope then you won’t be disappointed. But it’s honestly not great.

There’s a bit of a creepy factor that isn’t completely out of the realms of an Alexa Riley book, but it makes this one just feel like more of the same. I mean, 18 year old goes with a man that she’s never met before often her dad steals her life savings. I mean, I guess? But...I’m not sure I’d be comfortable knowing this actually happened to anyone. In fact, I’d be calling for help for this young woman right away.

But, suspending disbelief is a big part of an over the top short and steamy smut novella. I respect it. And I love it. But this book, while not bad, is just not a favorite of mine.

I recommend it if you’re board and it’s available for free or deeply discounted. If you’re an AR fan, you’re going to like it. But will you love it? Probably not. But it’s not bad enough to not recommend it. It’s just not good enough to say ‘go read this now.’
