I'm with the person who said this article doesn't really sell the couple. And I don't think this story qualifies as a slow burn romance if they're already having sex before they're even in love. This seems more like payment for services rendered, or perhaps a demonstration.
LOL. He did seem to lose a lot of functionality in his lower half. It's probably just on her check list to make sure all his equipment is in working order before she sends Kate her last bill.

I really do think Jafe have a cute vibe between them and they seem like a good match character-wise (i.e. he likes a damsel and she seems like she will need some saving). But good lord, cute and storyline potential only get your so far. They're about 3 months past my patience level with this couple.

Jordan has a cat?
Yes he was on today but really he wasn't on. She just had a 10 minute conversation with her cat while Kate hid under her bed.

Oh, I haven't seen today's episode, yet. It's always nice when the characters have pets. And I'm glad Arthur is indeed a cat and not some new character who'd be purring while watching people get it on, lol.

I wish I could say these two don't bore me to tears.

Alas, I cannot.

Jordan is boring by association.

They have a sexy looking couple with cute chemistry and yet they let them flounder with sporadic scenes and lack of movement in their story. It's such a waste. The set up is great as is the match up of characters so why not propel them with stronger material? :shrug:

We've seen the attraction/physical displays building on both their parts and I find the romance totally believable. Jordan has most probably come from a place of abuse or belittlement and is drawn to the good man she sees in Rafe. Rafe is drawn to this sweet, dedicated yet vulnerable woman who pushed him to achieve his best physical results. That works well. But having Jordan come on the scene in August and now here we are in Feb with little more info into the "mystery" they've teased is annoying. What do they expect from viewers? I can understand people not wanting to invest in Jordan's past when there is such little return.

As far as them having sex already. I'd like to see them dating longer or on screen more first. I thought it interesting when Jordan was putting on the brakes because it had me wondering if maybe her hesitancy had to do with some prior abuse? Days hadn't really dealt with that type of issue in awhile and it could have been an interesting obstacle for them to overcome as a couple and something for Rafe to become more actively involved in discovering the hidden reasons why. But obviously from this article that's not to be the case.

It would have been nice to watch them build to the "I love you" first. It's disappointing not to have romantic moments capitalized on. I will say they are both so affectionate I can see a sexual relationship occurring and not feel it too out of place. I'm just hoping the writers will not just leave it at sex and call that 'love' and be done with it. Because I do enjoy this couple, I want to see the relationship grow deeper.

I have a feeling they don't know what to do with Jordan

When Jordan and Rafe began to develop feelings for each other, I thought they had potential and were kind of cute.

But . . . the story (and character development for Jordan) has had little to no movement. What does happen is painfully slow. It would be nice if the show could find a balance between Jafe's Turtle Love and the Insta-Love of others we've seen in more recent years. I love old-fashioned, slow build up love stories as much as the next fan when they're done right.

These two have done ok when the writing has some life to it, but that hasn't happened often enough. And IMO, neither of the actors are charismatic enough to compensate for the dragging story.

As a result, I've lost interest. At this point I don't really care that they're going to have sex. It's a shame because I wanted to like them. I hope it improves and the writers and actors change my mind.
