I love the author Jay Crownover, I’ll admit that outright. I love the way she weaves a romantic storyline, so that you feel like you’re getting a great fictional escape, as well as a totally believable love story. Her characters are never one-dimensional, but have complex characters often with complicated pasts, just like relationships are for most people. This stand-alone story is no different, and while it addresses some very mature topics like addiction and mental illness, it’s accurately & sensitively written. I love how deeply flawed characters like Cable can still find someone, and the development of the relationship with Affton is one of my favourite stories from Jay yet - ALL the feels. Oh, and the erotic writing is always HOT. There isn’t anything that Jay has written that I won’t read, and there isn’t anything that she’s written that I haven’t enjoyed.

This book has serious themes yet is still fun and enjoyable to read. This book is so good and hooks you in because you care about the characters. Before reading this book I was aware the author had said the character Cable was based on a real person but even if I didn’t know that I would have assumed because he was just so real. The only negative about this book was that the epilogue was so short. I would have liked to read more about those events and in more detail. Also after reading Jay’s books I always want to go get another tattoo 😜

I'm a great fan of this writer and love all her books and this one is no different. ❤️
