2.75/5 stars 
The disclaimer for this book showcases the story perfectly. I loved Mr. Masters & Mr. Spencer, but I found the pacing of this book to be a bit off for me. There is a 6 year time jump fairly early on in the book, and there is so much on again, off again, I hate you, I want to love you, don't leave me, get the heck out that I kind of got whiplash. This is an age-gap, second chance romance, but halfway through this book I was questioning whether are not these two should be together at all. 

Positives: Happily Ever After, Dual Point of View, Spice

Weirdness aside, I did finish this book fairly quickly, despite it being over 400 pages of weird, and it did get me out of my reading slump. I've read a lot of TL Swan and the best piece of advice I have still applies with this book: don't read too much into things and just take them for what they are, you'll enjoy them more that way!

He was gorgeous, older and guarded.
I knew he was trouble from the moment we locked eyes.

We met at work, on my first day as a barista.
He smiled, I melted …. then he tasted my coffee and threw it away.

Again, the next day, and the next.
He hated the coffee, yet still came back.
I knew his game.

He called my coffee death in a cup.
I called him god’s gift to women.
I wasn’t lying.

Then we ran into each other outside of the coffee house, and that’s when things got interesting.

No longer suave and sweet with impeccable manners.
Mr Garcia had a darker side, his appetite, thick and heavy.
He set me on fire.

Unable to help it, we fell hopelessly in love.
The highest of highs.

But his demons are dark, as are mine.

I’m not sure if we can make it and I know that I have two choices.
Walk away now to save myself.
Or try and hold on and let love be the light.

I choose option two.
