Up to the apparently obligatory sex scenes that are voyeuristic in modern romance novels....sadly...I really enjoyed the book. The fairy primates part cracked me up and I really liked the personality of the hero. He was treating her with respect, but the heroine had to push them into intimacy. Why was that necessary?Also, I hated when her mother wants to hear all about her doing it with her boyfriend...what a gross mother.Like I said, the hero had a vulnerable innocence and I wish the girl had shown more moral values. Modern romance too often show hooking up as the critical bond without which you can't really be together. Often, it's even before "love" is mentioned, and heaven forbid "marriage".This author does very well with romantic banter and sentiments, but without some morals it just seems rather shallow and empty. How breathtakingly romantic would their hook up seem if they broke up a few months later and moved on to other people? Real life doesn't always have a HEA.But, all in all this story was very interesting and paced. Good character development. The video chats were a cool touch.I recommend "Anguished" by lila Felix for another vulnerable, lovable hero and good romance.
