- felt to insta-lovey? Idk I just couldn’t get into it and the pacing and everything just didn’t make sense
- the ML also just wasn’t doing it for me and him peeing outside with his dog was where I drew the line. Sorry not sorry

So emotional and the plot was so juicy. Each character within this book had such a complex narrative you could really empathise with them. In depth writing and a well-thought out opening book in the Knockemout series. Each relationship was so intense which really draws you into the story. The actions and descriptions of the mmcs in this book make me so envious, because where are the rich, fiesty, hot middle-aged men in my town?! T^T What's the drama with Lucy and Sloane? All to be revealed, I can't wait!

This book is such a nice read! It's the first time I've read one of Lucy Score's books, and this book is just so good. I like the main characters here, which are Knox and Naomi, because they are giving me butterflies in my stomach. Knox is grumpy, while Naomi has nice and beautiful characteristics, which is why this book is giving me a grumpy and sunny vibe. I love the plot twist of this book, and the writing is so good. 
 
 
This book keeps me going to read, and I can't put down the vibe. It's a fast-paced book, and like Beach Read, it also has a few long chapters, but it's good. It's also a rom-com type of book, and it's similar to a beach read, but this book is set in a small town, which is why I love it. I also like the cover of the book, which is so pretty because I love the color blue and it has pretty flowers on the cover. I've heard about this book everywhere, especially in book clubs, social media, and book vlogs, and I've wanted to try this one, and it's worth the shot. This book is perfect for readers who are Lucy Score's fans, beach reads, small towns, Grumpy & Sunshine vibes, or Rom-Com.

This book had me constantly wanting to keep reading and finding it hard to put down. There was a new twist on each chapter and I enjoyed hearing the perspectives from both of the main characters, Knox and Naomi. When I had finished the book I was thrilled to see that there was another in the series to read!
