“Taco Bout Love” is told through two points of view: Chloe’s and Lucas’s. Chloe has just arrived to Fantasie, a small town in Maine, when her food truck lowkey dies on a parking spot. That parking spot is Lucas’s and for some reason it really bugged him. And so this story starts, with strangers turning to enemies and then, perhaps, turning into something more.
The male main character referred to the female main character as “petite and thin” the moment he saw her and that just isn’t my jam. I’m not for body shaming, but using those words to describe a complete stranger that you’re sexualizing just didn’t sit well with me.
In general the dialogue was a bit iffy and the spicy, sensual scenes just felt forced. This is an entertaining read if you’re looking for a fast-paced, steamy romance that takes place in a small-town setting, yet I can’t help but feel that everything about this book is simply forgettable.
