the heroine is absolutely great: a black woman who is a successful surgeon! the hero is great too: a tall, tattooed guy who loves kids! there is plenty of extremely nontoxic masculinity to be found and it’s really refreshing. the characters were also communicative adults who talked about their feelings and what they wanted! unfortunately, this book lacked a lot of what i look for in romance novels. namely, chemistry! i felt absolutely no chemistry between Rafe and Sloan, which meant i wasn’t super motivated with my reading. there also felt like there was a lot of filler that i found myself skimming over. the ending was so abrupt that i was taken aback by it. annnd a few places that could have used a bit more editing (but it’s really not too bad).
i’ll probably be recommending this book to others, but with the caveat that it’s not the best i’ve read.
I felt the same way about this! The characters were great and it all worked well in theory, but there was no chemistry between the characters at all 🤷🏻♀️

It definitely seems to be what most people got out of it, very unfortunate!
