best one yet

I saw myself in this one in a way I didn't in previous books. fast paced as well.

I wanted to like this one

Colin and Truly meet while making a podcast. Colin is a family lawyer (divorce attorney) Truly is a author of queer regency romance novels. She is the “expert “ on love, he is the “expert” of well, love issues. They argue and then they don’t. Then don’t like each other, and then they do. Both the characters are likable and the one brief conversation they have about their mutual bisexuality is thought provoking and honest.

“My point, before I got off on a personal tangent, was that there’s no such thing as being queer enough. Action and attraction are two different things.”

But then that topic never goes anywhere and is not revisited.

So why did I feel like I was watching a sitcom, and not a particularly interesting one? All the elements were there, but they just didn’t mesh for me. Don’t get me wrong, this is a nice romantic story with parts so spicy that I felt like someone was narrating an adult film to me. I just expected too much. Alexandria Bellefleur’s book Written In the Stars is one of my favorite romance stories and I had hoped this might continue that trend.

I think if you go into this book without any expectations you will enjoy it more than I did.

The narration by Lauren Sweet was consistantly excellent, there was never any issue distinguishing the characters and she brought energy and enthusiasm to all the parts, particularly Truly

“

Great book, even better narration

This might be my favorite Alexandria Bellefleur book, but I say that after every new one I read. Colin McRory is unlike any other book boyfriend and his and Truly's banter and relationship is great. The spice is definitely spicing. The performance by Lauren Sweet makes the listening experience amazing!

So clever!

The banter was so clever and kept me interested the whole time. All characters (minus the villains) were likable. The spice was spicy. The MCs had so much chemistry from the beginning!

So adorable

I thought this was a good book. I enjoyed it, except I was unsure how to feel about the female character because she would act like a child and then like she’s much older. It was odd. But I loved it and would recommend.
