Unlike Rule Breaker that was full of angst, this one was very low on it (almost angst-free) but so so so funny! Oh, you couldn’t guess how I laughed hard! Every time Jude opened his mouth or Billy did something, I laughed out loud or smiled! I loved these three characters. They were so perfect. I loved Billy (Asa’s five-year-old boy), he was so so adorable and cute!

We met Jude in Rule Breaker, he was Dylan’s best friend. He’s a model. When a gap opening in his ceiling and a bath fell through and landed in his bedroom, his building inspector asked him out so he can survey the property. So Jude needs a home and he can’t afford a hotel room for too long or another rent besides his flat. So his friend introduced him to his stepbrother (Asa). Jude can live there and instead of paying rent he can help with Asa’s PA duties. But his friend forgot to tell him that Asa hates models!!!

Told in dual POV, 1st person (mostly Jude's POV) and it can be read as a stand-alone novel. Asa and Jude’s age gap is sixteen years but it wasn’t palpable at all for me. It’s so well-written and characters were amazing! Lily Morton definitely can write! Overall, I loved this one and hope you enjoy it as well!
