Oh, Lord. (*Deep, world-weary sigh*) I did a dumb thing. Again. I was looking for paranormal romance, so I just typed that into the Amazon search bar and clicked on the first book that had a not-scary cover and a slew of decent reviews and started reading. I should’ve just downloaded a sample, or dug a little deeper into the reviews, but...I didn’t.

This one made me mad, folks. Why? Because it’s a well-written, funny book with a hot, hot, HOT hero that seems like a genuinely, hard-working, nice guy, and the heroine is...a complete twatwaffle that I hated with the fire of a thousand suns.

Plot overview: Allie seeks to get revenge on her cheating ex by filming herself having a hot one-night stand with football star Roan. A sex tape scandel ensues.

I’m in a horrible book slump, y’all. I’ve really enjoyed this author’s books in the past, but this one fell flat for me to the point that I wasn’t able to finish. It was with a heavy heart that I had to DNF at 37%, even though the vast majority of the other reviews for this book are super glowy. Maybe I’m under caffeinated and grumpy because of it? I dunno. But I don’t feel good about this.

This one might be a case of it’s not you, it’s me, folks. If you look at the other reviews, they’re glowy. Everyone loved this book. I usually love this author. But this one...I couldn’t finish it.

I will admit that I made it to about 65% of the story before I DNFd. Why did I keep reading for that long? Morbid curiosity, I guess? I dunno.

Holy crap, y’all...I did a dumb thing.

​I didn’t read the blurb. I saw the title, read a little snippet on Facebook, I think, and downloaded. I thought, oh, how cool! A book about a man who chooses to care for children all day! But that’s not what I got. Oh, no...that’s not what I got.

Just like the author says in the first line of the blurb for this book, I love firemen. Give me a good romance about strong, brave, muscle-y, sweaty...where was I going with that? Lost my train of thought. But anyhoo, even though this one featured a hot fireman hero, I had to tap out at 12%. Here’s what went wrong for me:
