Things I love about this book:
>super shy Scottish MMA fighter hero - hella swoony and a pleasant surprise subversion of the alpha protector trope
>diverse representation of characters - race, size, personality, taste, all of it! one of the biggest reasons I adore this author
>strong group of female friends for the main character

Things I didn't love about this book:
>I couldn't get past just how desperately Payton needed therapy (instead of sex) to help her overcome her trauma. Yes, Braedyn is patient and perfect and irresistible, but not enough for their sexy times to ever be truly sexy to me.
>Whenever virginity is a key plot-point it's a huge turn-off to me, especially when losing it is even a little painful. Everyone's tastes and experiences are different, but this is one of my very least favorite tropes.
>Too many illogical decisions or deus ex machina plot points especially regarding the stalker conflict made it impossible for me to suspend my disbelief overall.

Overall
I'll keep reading this series because I love this author. Even though this one didn't do it for me, her skill in bringing a diverse cast of characters to life surpasses any reservations I have regarding tropes or plot. ( )

I liked that both of the characters were shy. I liked that the attractive muscle bound man was attracted to a curvy girl. I liked that he had transformed himself from an overweight teen to an elite athlete. Both had interesting back stories and loyal friends. All those things I liked, but for some reason they didn't resonate fully and it was just good but not great. I skipped a lot of the steamy stuff because I thought they were so cute without needing to read that. 3 stars ( )
