She’s so tiny. He has a six pack and a huge dick. She likes to read and watch football omg you guys she’s such a nerd! He’s a fuckboy that likes to party and doesn’t fall in love. She’s had a crush on him for so many years. But oh shocking she’s the exception and he’s falling for her, who would’ve thought! She loves to tease him. He can’t stop looking at her body and thinking about fucking her. So they do. A lot. Like, a lot. I didn’t need to know the details of every single time they fucked but thank you I guess? And the rest is history. A long, torturous, repetitive, so bad it’s almost entertaining history.

I was going to stop my review there but I actually have more to say. Can we please stop using “female” when talking about women? This was done not once, not twice, but THREE times, one of which was said by the fmc.

The last ~100 pages were quite literally unnecessary. It wasn’t even a third act breakup, it was just filler to, idk, make the book heavier if you’re reading a physical copy? So much back and forth, the same issue being repeated over and over again, the same conversation just in different words and in different moments. I can understand the emotional impact it had on the characters and how it affected their relationship and made it more solid, but there was still no reason to drag it for as long as it did.

If you’ve read an Elle Kennedy book before, I'm sorry to say this is exactly the same as her other ones, and I mean exact same type of characters, exact same type of storyline, exact same tropes, exact same type of conflicts and resolutions. Like good for her for finding her niche I guess but at least throw in some creativity.
