WAT

The good part: This entire scenario is incredibly sick (yes, hahaha, YES). Fucking your best friend's mom? Fucking your daughter's best friend? Oh boy, this could be a riot.

The bad part: It's a very very slow burn. You'd expect a buildup, then drama when the daughter/friend finds out, then reconciliation. Instead, it's 300 pages of sex, secret dates and a good old relationship escalator (of course, marriage is just what this story needs 🥴). At some point it really got boring. If you really wanted this story, make it shorter. And scrap the epilogue.

Review of 'Mistakes Were Made' on 'Goodreads'

  1. this is erotic fiction…heavy on the sex scenes and light/absent the romance until the very end (not a complaint! it’s hot)

    2. for the first 85% of the book, I was unsure how they’d move from forbidden sex at every opportunity to a requisite HEA “romance” ending, but they did it!

    (adding an extra 1/2 star for the narration of Erin’s POV)
