All the Feels is a steamy open-door contemporary romance with plenty of sexy talk and action. The story features Alex, a handsome and impulsive actor in a controversial role for a Game-of-Thrones-type TV show, and Lauren, a short, curvy therapist who is hired as Alex's "minder" after his high-profile incident in a bar.
While the forced proximity begins against Alex's wishes, he quickly learns to appreciates Lauren's calming presence, and she eventually enjoys his near constant stream of sarcastic humor. In addition to lots of steam, the plot includes real-life issues including job burnout, living with ADHD, and family expectations.
This romance is best enjoyed after reading Spoiler Alert, book 1 in the series. The "world" is built in Spoiler and a few events occur in both novels from different perspectives. Feels has less fan fiction than Spoiler (which was great for me) and lots of body-positivity messaging.
Olivia Dade wrote the novels she wishes had been available when she began reading romances at age seven, featuring heroines who look like herself (and me). It's so important for readers of all ethnic origins, sexual preference, and body types to find people like themselves as heroes and heroines in romances.
Many thanks to Avon and NetGalley for the review copy of this novel. I'm eager to read whatever the author writes next.
