I struggled some with the POV and the dialogue, but I ultimately decided to DNF because I didn’t feel the connection between the characters and didn’t like how the first almost-spicy time went.
When Peaches wanted to know what them hooking up would mean and Jaime got mad because Peaches didn’t want to have sex right that second, it was over for me.
I also didn’t love how much focus there was on Jaime’s femininity and Peaches’ masculinity.

I just couldn’t get into the writing style, but kept trying to give the story a chance. It’s fluffy, but the cheese and corn factors are turned up so high, it was cringey for me.
In the first sex scene, Chris is attacked by the rooster. He picks up the rooster, carries it outside to its coop, feeds it treats, and goes back inside to fuck Trixie. But he never washes his hands. I literally gagged. I couldn’t keep reading after he touched her with his chicken fingers
