listened to audiobook and the poor voice actors have run out of voices long ago...

i just was personally not interested in this love plot (rape victim working through that to trust someone with intimacy again)
ruby writes sexual violence with such tone-deafness that it makes anything involving that so rough to read.

“I’ve had sex, both willingly and unwillingly” - Tiffany

horrific way to word that.

I always start my reviews with ‘I really enjoyed this!’ But it’s just honest lol. Reading about her past sexual abuse was difficult and the resulting ptsd but I love how gentle her mate was to her and I love how their love story progressed and I loved this HEA so much and also the couple of Josie POVs setting up for the next book 😃
