How do you make an insta-love story perfectly believable? No one knows how better than E.M. Lindsey, I swear. Two lonely men, both broken from their individual circumstances, an incredible amount of fiery chemistry, and enough vulnerability and sweetness to rot your teeth. I adored these two characters, and each of their stories were so sad that it made them finding each other even more satisfying. Claude discovering his enjoyment in being a little more dominant than he knew ended up being a perfect fit for Harley, who had a hard time expressing himself out loud but took to his gentle commands happily. Although this was a snowed-in trope book, I actually loved that there were other characters around for Harley to intact with. I liked that both Harley and Claude could seek out a friendly ear or a quiet place to be alone if they needed the space. They both acknowledged right away that it felt too fast to be falling in love, but they both maturely handled their feelings and made sure to communicate with each other and take time for themselves to be sure they wanted to take the risk anyway. This whole book was just so sweet and at times had me laughing. I really enjoyed it.
