So i...I don’t think I’ve heard of this book before! So it was definitely great to discover it. The way you describe the Onslow brothers does sound awesome, Jasprit—genuinely nice male leads who don’t have some obsessive-alpha complex are sometime hard to find. I think the age difference between Tess and Toby might make me a little uncomfortable potentially, but I think it really depends on how the author handles and presents the issue. But in any case, thanks for posting this review and letting us all know about this book!

I'm just so tired of this winter and the cold and feeling depressed all the time that I want a feel-good romance, something light and fun and with plenty of gorgeous boys. <br />So Onslow boys, here I come.
