I don't love M/F contemporary romance, so it's hard to say if it was my personal tastes or the book, but I never got above "like" into something more. It felt repetitive, and the sex scenes felt rote, so much so that I ended up fast-forwarding through them a lot of the time. I liked the diverse cast of characters (lots of POC and across the queer spectrum as well) and the themes of relationships between siblings and parent/child, but I grew really tired of the back and forth between the two MCs. prissy, which bothered me and distracted me while I was listening. I felt like he was giving it his all and was technically proficient, but his voice was all wrong for the character. However, Jeremy York was a different matter.
