No build up.I feel like my review is a bit harsh but that's because I feel upset about what I've read. And let me remind to you that this all happens in less than a day! They live happily ever after in their new icecream van. He decides to go, choosing his job over staying with Layla.and while driving, he realizes he can't live without Layla, calls his cousin, tells him he quit (yes cause quitting the mob is that simple), throws his phone out the window and drives back to Layla. On their way back to the parking lot, Roman gets another call from his organization which needs him cause it's all a mess in his absence. They then go to the hotspring again and have their first time together. Roman chases her and apologizes once more. Before she can return the favor, Roman gets a call from his organization and Layla is upset once again and tells him to go screw himself, and walks away. Layla invites Roman in her van to go further and he then goes down on her, giving her the big O with his mouth. She goes hide in her ice cream van, and when she gets out of it, Roman is there to apologize. When Roman decides to leave the water pool, he goes to his car and Layla comes to offer him icecream, which he refuses pretty harshly and hurts Layla's feelings. She offers him a massage to relax which works but she has to go. Layla arrives at the hotspring and sees Roman. This will be SPOILERS and I don't even care. What annoyed me was how dramatic it was for two strangers to have all those back and forth, just like a teenage couple would act. All the events happen in less than a day. Now this plot looks very simple, and it is.

It's pretty much love/lust at first sight for them. He goes to a hotspring where he meets Layla, a girl who lives in her icecream van and who likes to invent new flavors to sell.

Roman is a boss mobster who is forced to go on a vacation to learn to relax. But before I start my rant, here's the premise: Now the main thing that bothered me was how unrealistic it was and how the pacing just didn't make sense. It was original, sweet and I liked what I read at first. The concept, as per usual, was promising. It's one of those stories I kept thinking 'Are you serious? You can't be serious'. Not Cassie Mint's best work, I'll tell that much.
