Series Review: Enemies with Benefits by Annika Martin and Joanna Chambers (2017)

Overall: If the premise works for you, then it’s well-executed, but the premise super mega did not work for me

Review: Kai’s Healing Smiles by Vivi Anne Hunt (2022)

Heat Factor: Well, that Daddy stuff sure surprised me

Character Chemistry: They are both so clueless and so googly-eyed about each other
