This heartwarming romance set in an Amish community in Kentucky is very well written and captivating. I did not want to put it down. This was a more complex take on a marriage of convenience (of sorts) between two people with an honest but suppressed love connection. I did not want this emotional tale between stubborn Ben and optimistic LeEtta to end. I will be reading more books from this author.

This is so exciting! The Horde King world is continuing on to see what is across Drukkar's sea. I loved this book. The plot is amazing, I couldn't put it down. The characters and world are well developed. I never feel like there are plot holes or pieces that the author skipped over quickly when it comes to Zoey Draven books. This was a great pairing to go along with the beginning of what I'm hoping is a long journey into this new storyline.

I liked the age gap, the way he discovered that he liked being called Daddy. I enjoyed the plot. Although the FMC was supposed to be 23 but read much older. The spice really saved the book. I think the plot added to the spice instead of the other way around. Overall, it was a really good read, and I loved the characters.

This reads like a predictable Hallmark movie. The characters and their romance were not well developed. The town setting was picturesque and cozy. The pace was rather slow, but that matched the cozy book setting well. There was no real plot as you could predict the outcome by a few chapters in. It was a cute and cozy read, but the predictability and not well developed characters/romance made this something I would not recommend or reread.

Closer to 2.5 stars. This was highly recommended on reddit. I was not super impressed by it, however. The plot had great potential, but the entire book was poorly executed. There were redeeming portions and qualities. The writing felt choppy, and there were many missed opportunities to keep the plot moving or to mix the story up a bit. I did not feel like the MMC was as developed as the FMC, yet it was dual POV. I didn't enjoy it much and honestly almost DNF multiple times, but the reddit suggestions kept me going thinking maybe I was just missing something or the next page would make it worth the read. I did enjoy the ending.

I really enjoyed this book. The characters were well developed, and the plot kept moving even though it wasn't a suspenseful plot. I liked that the FMC was 29 and the MMC was 25. Their love seemed real and genuine and avoided the miscommunication part that I feel is so overdone in romance novels currently. It was overall, very well written. I would recommend this one, and would love to read more books written by this author.

I loved this book! I would absolutely love to read this whole series. However, this is the only KU book currently, and the series is too extensive and expensive. My local library also does not have any of this series. This was well written, the world building is amazing, and the characters are well developed and dynamic. The romance itself is well developed, and the spice is on point. I loved this book and would absolutely read more if I could.

It's was okay. I finished the book quickly. Since it was so short, I expected more intensity. It's seemed a little bit reserved for the plot and length of the story.

I didn't read the tags or warnings well enough, obviously. But that's on me. So otherwise 3 stars.

1.5 stars, but only the spice saved it. If this was just a book of straight spicy scenes, it would be so much better. The plot was boring. It had potential, but the author just missed the opportunities there. The FMC was such an attention loving princess b!tch. She gets brutally attacked by her ex, who she called "daddy" to then return to calling her new bf "daddy" the next week. I can't get behind the dynamics of the couple for the next book. I wouldn't be continuing this series based on this book, but that just takes freaky to a whole new level, and I'm pretty open-minded.
