This book was just...eh, okay. I hate to call it boring, but it's one of those books you read when you have nothing to do and put it down when something better comes along. There was nothing that made me want to turn the pages to see what happens next. It was just them getting to know each other, which can be kinda bland when there is absolutely no conflict. Even when there was a chance for conflict, something I'd been waiting the entire book for, it was very anticlimactic. Spencer was just too soft for me. I thought he'd be a nice reprieve from the normal alpha male douchebags in other books, but he was too far on the other end of the spectrum. Even when he tried to take the lead and be aggressive in bed, it wasn't believable to me. The relationship between the two was more like an old married couple. There was no spark, ever, it was just the soft glow of a lightbulb instead of a roaring fire. There were a few typos and odd sentences after dialogue, but nothing too distracting. Overall, I'm giving it three stars because it was well written, and for the author to write a male character so outside of the norm, though not my taste, she deserves kudos.
