Reed Johnson is a playboy bachelor with an aversion to kids, families or anything resembling the American dream. Until a one-night-stand with the beautifully alluring Gia Fanzio.
There’s a period after the ONS and before Reed’s switch flipped where I found his attitude and behavior off-putting. I enjoyed the night they met - 🥵 - and after their relationship really began enough that it was still a good read.
