I really wanted to like this, but I really struggled with Grace the entire book. I find it really infuriating when a character makes all these assumptions rather than just having a conversation with anyone and then they self sabotage and blame others. It was extra frustrating with these two because Phoebe is sooo communicative and really works with Grace to help her get more comfortable verbalizing her thoughts, feelings and needs, and while there ends up being a reason for why Grace has a hard time with it (and I'd like to mention I didn't particularly care for how that was revealed and casually tossed aside). I just really didn't enjoy being in Grace's head very much.

And I don't know if I just don't listen to enough romance (I definitely don't), but the dirty talk in this just didn't work for me, especially the use of the pet name “baby girl”....I had a big ick every time it was used.
