Midnight Kisses

Product Information

I really loved every single character in this book. There is so much depth for an author-categorized erotica. Greta and Otis have to heal and take steps to become better people for themselves, not just each other. I felt every emotion under the sun while reading. It’s definitely a character driven book with amazing development. AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT THTHE GROVELING?! THE FLOWERS? Ugh. I snort and kiss the center of his chin. “𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗱, 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲.”

i loved the dynamic between otis (a golden retriever) and greta (a grump) so much. they go through some of the best character development i’ve ever read and i truly appreciate how real their struggles in life were, it adds that emotional depth i look for in romance books The sport aspect is also a lot less than other sport romances i have read and it was really refreshing.

these characters were unapologetically themselves, flawed + so real. the story explored their struggles within themselves + their families, some of the best character development from the main characters but also some of the side characters. ALSO, some folks will for sure be put off by this, but I loved that as a FMC, Greta was "allowed" to have a good, satisfying sex life outside of MMC, and she even had sex with someone else after they first hooked up (but before they entered any sort of exclusive relationship) - here, all my toxic double standard relationship traits are in the open, for all of you to see, because if it was written the other way around, I'd be LIVID and threw a book across the room, but since it was the girl getting some, I'm just chilling, all giddy and GOOD FOR HER It follows Greta, an ice queen with commitment issues who doesn’t do football players AND the coach’s daughter, and Otis, QB1 soft boy with a dominant and jealous streak. After hooking up one night at a party without exchanging names, they decide to become friends with benefits (and Greta is hellbent on zero commitment). And, you know how the story goes…

I’m normally good at predicting what’s gonna happen in romance books but this one surprised me time and again.He bites his bottom lip and angles his head like he’s trying to get a better view of me. “𝗜 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻, 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲, 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱.” but to be fair, this double standard stems almost solely from me being tired of decades and decades of sexist narrative where female characters must be chaste and devoted only to "The One" while the guy does what he wants when they're not together, so it's to even the score; and yes, also because I will always support women's wrongs 💁‍♀️) the best way to explain the feeling this book gave me is that it scratched an itch in my brain. i loved everything about this book from the characters, the plot, the writing, and my absolute favorite: the formatting
