Received an ARC of this book via NetGalley.
3 out of 5 Stars
Like: I liked that she fell in love with an older man and was still able to have her first love. I loved that she grew into who she was supposed to be.
Dislike: I spent most of the book disliking the hero and wishing she would ditch him until he grew up. I disliked his friends, I'm hoping they get what they deserve. I blame him for their behavior, If you can't stand up for your girl, you don't deserve her. Dante was way out of line too. It was a real jerk move that he pulled on Chase.
Recommendation: Both parties matured over the course of the book, redeeming themselves (mostly) by the end.

Heat (Club Inferno 1) by Jamie K Schmidt
I won this book in a giveaway.
5 out of 5 Stars
What did I like?
I'm glad that her sister was willing to help, despite the fact that the family (including the one getting help) has treated her like a pariah. The heroine needed a push and while the hero gave it to her; he was also still good about respecting how ready she was to move on. The banter is very entertaining. I like that though there is a good lead in on the further exploration of their relationship, that it doesn't end with a HEA, more like a HFN. This is a good thing, she isn't completely ready and the author did a great job of giving the couple a solid ending without ignoring the fact that the heroine was coming out of an abusive relationship.
What did I not like?
Don't like the comparison between her and her sister, there is a lot of negativity and self-righteousness that she needs to quit buying into. There is no redeeming some people.
Recommendation: I am looking forward to the next book and hope that this couple is visited.
