I wanted to love this SO BADLY. I really enjoyed the Edens series, especially Juniper Hill, so I was hopeful this would be similar. There were certainly similarities but I just did not vibe with this one. The MMC (Ford) had very possessive alpha “touch her and die” vibes which works in mafia/dark romances but just felt a little over the top in this situation. You’re a college football coach my guy, settle down. The FMC (Millie) was likeable enough but a little flat as a character.
