Surprising Good Book

I went into this book not really liking the MMC based on the previous books. I normally DO NOT care for a playboy trope, but Dean won me over… The way he was there for Allie was everything, and the way she forced him to confront his issues was chef’s kiss.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was spicy, but the characters were well developed. Even though it was definitely insta-lust in this book, I still enjoyed it. Dean grew on me, and Allie was so relatable.
