Rating subject to change because I still can't figure out how I feel about this book 2 days after finishing it. I'm still baffled at how this book just fell so short of my expectations considering I absolutely loved the first book and have it on my re-read list. But while reading this book I was just bored and at some point, I was just reading for completion. I had hopes that the book would get better as I read it, but it just never came. 

Winnie and Archer's relationship entirely felt like insta-love to me and there was no development. I found myself mindlessly breezing through the book and at some point they just loved each other.

Also, Archer set this whole premise where he would not take their relationship any further until Winnie fully trusts him, but it was quickly abandoned by lust. After sleeping together, she just magically trusted him and that was the end of it.

The timeline following their relationship was also really confusing and it was hard to tell how much time had passed making it even harder to follow.

In general, I didn't like the storyline at all.

They introduced a plot which I thought was going to be the main problem-- which also didn't make sense. Why did she have to marry Archer and him specifically because her sex tape was leaked? It just isn't realistic to any extent and then it was resolved within the first few chapters. Nothing happened for the longest time and then it was reintroduced at the end of the book again.

It felt as if nothing was going on the entire time, there was really no plot. 

Also, I just didn't like Archer's character either. It read more like he was obsessed with her than in love as he just lusted over her the whole time. It was like he flipped a switch and it just caught me entirely off guard in a bad way. But yeah, this book is a no for me unfortunately.
