This is the ultimate marriage of convenience book with a good side of very forced proximity. These two idiots passed from annoying acquaintances to husbands/roommates that resented each other to lovers.
We have a somewhat realistic 3rd act break up with a nice conversation about consent and a somehow rushed reconciliation but I’m not even mad about it.
I just wished we had an epilogue to see what Casey decided to do about the 20 years....more

This book was good but it could also have been better? it’s moderately angsty and low in steam but it has its good parts, I was not expecting much of it since the only reason I read it was because I wanted to read the 2nd book in the series after I saw it recommended on Reddit lol, still I enjoyed it and I even ended up forgiving Mike....more
Shitty families are my trigger, honestly, fuck Donny's dad and fuck Gabe!

They never redeemed themselves they just continue to act like dicks the whole time and in the end we get a lame apology and that's it? all good? Bitch no, just because they are your family you shouldn't take shit from them.
Regardless, this book was ok, Dell was fun to read but Donny was all over the place with his denial firmly in place until almost 80% and that gets tiring.
Ok so yes I will admit this one is better than the previous one, mostly because Tully lowers his creepiness to an adequate level. So I'll give it 4 stOk so yes I will admit this one is better than the previous one, mostly because Tully lowers his creepiness to an adequate level. So I'll give it 4 stars for now but I might lower my rating later, I've definitely enjoyed other NR Walker books more.
But I do have to say that there is no actual plot in this book, like seriously, nothing plot-wise happens. What is even going to happen or not happen I guess in the third book?
This book centers around a cyclone and that is very dramatic on its own because yes they are natural disasters but I mean, personally, I've lived through a couple of Hurricanes as we like to call cyclones in this part of the world, and yes they are destructive and that's sad and all but not plot material.
It just rains a lot and there's a lot of wind but there is no storm chasing so how are they still the storm boys?

It also features a surprisingly not homophobic but very intense dad and a great group of guys who’ll probably get their own book.
The book is by no means perfect and it has some tiny continuity errors that I can just ignore. I’m keen to read the rest of the books in the series even if I for his book my mistake because it had the same name of another book that I was actually looking for if I’m being honest....more

Ugh I don’t know what it was about this book but was bored for the majority of it and that’s disappointing. After all, I’m pretty sure I decided to reUgh I don’t know what it was about this book but was bored for the majority of it and that’s disappointing. After all, I’m pretty sure I decided to read Depth of Field because I originally wanted to read this one and it was just meh.
Like honestly practically nothing happens and that’s not always an issue because I can totally like a book that is just vibes and no plot but in this case, it was just boring.
There’s a lot and I mean A LOT of Ryan mentioning his ex-wife and I don’t get why, also the dialogues were super corny and weird, these dudes said in so many different ways how they were the same and two sides of the same coin and two parts of a soul so many times that I just couldn’t believe it....more

And yes, I get he haI really wasn't expecting to like this book, mostly because Noah comes across as a very obnoxious character in the previous book.
And yes, I get he has his sad backstory with Nathaniel, but did he have to appear so unlikeable? Talking about Noah, I don't think I'm alone in saying that his friends were complete dicks to him about this fallout with Aron, like is not his fault if the dude wanted more than what they had previously agreed.
As for Matt, I don't have much to say about him, I mostly feel bad for his situation and if I had been him I would have been even more of an asshole to everyone....more

It was like I was there alongside him being all angsty about Jamie and wanting to take care of him lost about this life and his decisions, and conflicted about going back to his home country while at the same time feeling adrift.
I'm so glad I read this book, the writing was perfect and I only wish it was a full-length novel with maybe Jamie's POV....more

I feel that I wanted to read a cowboy book and that's what I got, but also I have to be honest and say that even if I enjoyed reading this book it also felt a bit boring at times.
Austin was way more invested than Kitt and that felt sort of depressing, they were always saying the horniest things ever in the most inopportune situations LOL.
Also, Kitt's dad can go to hell and you just know the photos are going to be a big thing from the beginning....more
