Rush is about to give his boyfriend a sexy surprise when he gets a surprise himself. His boyfriend has a fiancée.

What would be better a way for Hunter and Rush to get back at their ex than hooking up and sending it to him?


I was looking forward to this book but unfortunately it was no new favorite of mine. I was honestly quite bored at times throughout the book. Rush and Hunter were really cute together though and I liked their happy ending.

I liked Rush. He was so unintentionally funny and sweet. I don’t know how accurate his ADHD was compared to reality but as another neurodivergent, I related to him quite a lot.
Hunter doesn’t answer, and his long silence confirms my suspicions. Poor guy is neurotypical.

“Well, I think the first step is you telling me what you think?”
“About?”
“Me.”
“You’re calm.”
“Right. Well, don’t rip my clothes off at once.”


I did not connect much with Hunter. He was sweet and funny but I didn’t care all that much for him.

I love Rush’s family.
”Are you dying?”
“I wish I was.”
“It doesn’t feel nice, you know.”

And I just want to point out that people with ADHD can in fact get places on time, especially jobs. There are measures to use if needed to make sure you’re on time. I’m not saying it’s not okay to ever be late, but always being late isn’t realistic in the world we live in and most people with ADHD learn to adapt. I personally think Saxon should not have portrayed ADHD like people who can’t function normally and disrespects others time lines.
If you disagree with what I said, that’s fine and you’re welcome to tell me your opinion. Just remember to be respectful.

len ❀ i just read another friend's review about the adhd and they didn't really like it, and while i haven't read this, i understand it can be relatable, but i think the author kinda just took stereotypes of adhd. like, i think people still have this preconceived notion that if you have adhd, that means you forget stuff. and yeah, memory is different, but i'm saying that's the only thing people think adhders struggle with, yet there is waaaay more to it. i'm tired of adhd being a thing in romance where it's only shown in a way as if people forget everything yet that isn't the case for everyone.

Yeah there was definitely some stereotypes to it (and some people do of course have those problems too) but the author was doing too much.
He forgets time. We’re talking days at a time, wednesday to saturday once and it’s just too much to even seem true. You’re telling me he didn’t notice when he went to sleep, eat or go to the bathroom? He even missed 2/3 days of work, like bfr

Stereotypes used: forgetful, never being on time, can’t focus, can focus for days straight, they surround themselves with messy but systematic places where they can find anything and they can’t find anything otherwise, aaand that’s all I can think of for now💀
