Wells goes above and beyond in proving he’s serious about Conor (his sister and assistant come close to stealing the scene here). Instead of a quick resolution and accepted apologies and happily ever after, the book doesn’t end there. The physical coming together of both characters is as explosive as promised, accompanied by the inevitable dark moment that is as heart-wrenching as expected. One of the steamiest scenes in this book is laced with incredibly awkward tension, but it’s so well written that I couldn’t help but keep reading. The tension in this book grew steadily as Wells digs himself a deeper and deeper hold regarding his “relationship” with Conor. It turns out I am, on the other hand, a total sucker for the “identity porn” trope, especially when one side knows the truth and the other is blissfully unaware. However, the authors quickly turn the dynamic sexy AF, and they also don’t leave the reader hanging about who is on the other end of Conor’s conversation. I’m not one for texting/sexting or sending intimate photos by text, so the basic premise of this “meet-cute” didn’t initially speak to me.
