*4- Stars*

Shorty with steam.

[Lacy · Rating 5 out of 5]

. A great short steamy, sexy, sweet and romantic look at Zane and Maddox's life. I loved it! Worth a read if you liked Turn Me On and Zane and Maddox's relationship/romance.

Yes! Thank for you the follow up short story after Turn Me On! Fantastic view of life down the road for Zane and Mad. It is an awesome treat to see the relationships after time has passed.

⭐️⭐️
I’m sorry but who looked at this and said “yes, this is a full book”???
because what I just read was not a story. it was an extended epilogue wearing a fake moustache pretending to be a novel.
like—

no plot
no conflict
no stakes
no actual reason to exist

just ✨vibes✨ and “look, they’re still together” repeated for however many pages this was
don’t get me wrong, it’s cute. painfully cute. aggressively wholesome. but I didn’t sign up for a relationship status update, I signed up for a book.
I kept waiting for something to happen. anything.
a problem. a disagreement. a tiny bit of tension.
instead I got:

everything is perfect, we’re in love, the end 🥰

cool. happy for you. but also… that’s what epilogues are for???
and the length?? criminal. I’ve read bonus chapters longer than this that were FREE.
final verdict:
this isn’t bad—it just shouldn’t exist as its own thing. cute extra content if you’re obsessed with the couple, but as a standalone? absolutely not.

Short bonus novella where this spicy duo play out a scene as a birthday treat that doesn't follow the normal conventions of their known bedroom antics. Its still so very Maddox and Zane and is kinda a HEA but mainly just a smutty bonus to enjoy.

[Evelin · Rating 3 out of 5]

For such a short story, it was great. But don't expect deep philosophical thoughts or grandiose stuff. The point here is sex, and the main thing that happens is sex. It's not even sex I'd like, but I thought about how hard it is to write short stories and decided to be generous to the author.

"Why did you climb Mount Everest? The answer? Because it’s there."

"I’m making my desires clear too. And he knows what to do. He turns my wishes into orders. “Get down on your knees,” he growls."

Zane and Maddox turn up the heat in this short story 🔥

[Karen · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 stars--all sex, no story--a bit disappointing. Great narration though!

[Mommysuz · Rating 5 out of 5]

Holy hotness
Great little nugget of a read.

Trop trop mims

[Rebecca Balfanz · Rating 5 out of 5]

Spicy ending to the story of Zane and Maddox.

[Flavia · Rating 5 out of 5]

Conto curtinho, esperado que o Zane fosse querer comandar de baixo uma hora... apesar dele na verdade ter ficado por cima, kkkkkkkkkk

[Andrea Fernandez · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short, steamy and oh so good glimpse into Maddox and Zane’s beautiful life together.

[gigi · Rating 2 out of 5]

literally an extra epilogue of the book, nothing special

[jacatkins · Rating 4 out of 5]

I do love a follow up story esp of Zane and Maddox...
This one had the extra tied up spice... 🔥
