You know usually Catharina Maura books are so bad they're good and so I treat them as a guilty pleasure of sorts. But this one was just bad.
Everyone in this story had one personally trait: being unlikable.
Archer with his 'domineering aura' was boring, Serenity was annoying, her brother was forgettable, Theo couldn't get a hint and Tyra was unnecessary drama. The Muse storyline was so goofy- like what was the reason?
You could legit guess the whole story in the first 15% and yet it still fell flat. 
Archer and Serenity gave me the ick and the way they talked to each other- I just know I would die of second-hand embarrassment if I ever saw them interact in public.

Save yourself. If you really want to read a Catharina Maura book just read one from her Windsor's' series- at least those are bearable (except the second last one wtf was that)

P.s. I'm having a bad week and in the mood to be a hater so take my review with a pinch of salt (thanks <3)
