Book 2: The waiting game complaint

I have (unfortunately) seen posts regarding the spoiler of when Bryce & Hunt finally consummate their relationship in book 2, and how it's giving SA vibes because Bryce wanted to wait until Solstice.

However... In chapter 17, Bryce says"Well, since we're dabbling in some seriously dangerous shit, now's probably as good a time as any to admit I don't want to wait until Winter Solstice." then Hunt tells her they shouldn't get frisky in the alley in case they are seen, because it could cause issues with her temporary engagement.

I'm only on chapter 20, but I'd like to know if she changes her mind, and decides to wait. I mean... I guess I could keep reading (and I will), but I also want to understand the potential ick I haven't gotten to yet.

I'm just trying to mentally prepare for something that's much farther along in the book.

No other spoilers, please, and thank you.
