I loved this so much, and I thought I would going into it. I was super excited to read Alex's story. He is so sweet and caring, but oh, so hilarious. He is unapologetically himself, and I love that so much. There was not a single thing I disliked about this book. The story was great, the writing was amazing, and the characters were so well done. I was so thrilled with the top-notch communication between our three MCs. Their honesty was so refreshing. They portrayed a realistic but also an ideal poly relationship. It showed the evolution from a polycule to a triad, and I was practically fist pumping every time they fleshed out their thoughts and feelings so openly with each other. Each of our MCs had so much depth and were so loveable. Ro is the absolute sweetest and deserves all the love, and Finn was so gently strong. Something I am really loving in this series is the positive representation of sex work while also addressing the stigmas surrounding sex workers. They are able to have healthy and loving relationships, and it's important to understand that strict monogamy is not the only kind of relationship that works. It makes my heart happy. Also, the unsung hero of this story is our ace queen, Anh, and her hilarious nicknames for her dildos. It always had me cackling. And, as a side note, Manuel is the absolute worst and deserves the worst. He hurt our gentle giant, Ro, and our sunshine, Alex. I won't stand for that. Finally, THAT EPILOGUE?! The sweetness gave me a toothache, and I'm not at all mad about it. All in all, this was wonderful, and I love it so much. I don't know if this will be topped in this series. It's definitely my favorite so far.
