Ashley James

Knox and Aston are simply *chef's kiss*

This book starts out as enemies to lovers but quickly evolves when feelings for each other surface. I wanted to yeet Knox's dad into oblivion for making him feel so insecure about his feelings and sexuality. These boys needed each other when they didn't even know it. And who doesn't love a hot threesome when you "hate" each other!?

I give this one 5 stars and for being the 2nd book in the series, I can't wait to see where we go from here.

I received this as an ARC from Nisha's Books and am leaving an honest review… (more)

To start off, I have read a lot of Ashley James' books including the Desires series that goes along with Kismet. But this book was by far, the best one I've read all year. Cash has a huge crush on his professor Stone and at first Stone doesn't realize it until he notices the looks from Cash. Every time they get close, Stone cuts off the situation due to being married(but in an unhappy relationship) When they finally give in, the sparks fly and their relationship is rather spicy.

**POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD**

Fast forward to the end of the school year: Cash and Stone are making plans to be with one another but then a terrible situation makes Stone leave the state without saying goodbye or explaining himself.

After meeting up again 5 years later, all of the feelings resurface and they fight it tooth and nail until they finally clash. Once everything is explained on how it went down 5 years previously, they begin to get their HEA.

That house tour had me in my feelings; it was soooo sweet I had tears reading it.

Plot: 5/5
Spice: 5/5… (more)
