This was..... something. Listen, if you want a book that has no relationship development, just smut, and is riddled with misogyny, then look no further. I am definitely in the minority here. I fully admit I couldn't put this book down, but it was more in the realm of not being able to look away from a bad car accident. This was just above DNF territory. I finished it. I know this seems harsh, but this was just not good, in my opinion. If you had a good time reading it, then good for you. I love that for you, but this was not my jam and felt too problematic for me to rate it highly. I will say the writing is good (which is why I couldn't stop reading it and why it isn't a lower rating than it is), but the content just wasn't for me. I just fell for the hype. I probably won't be continuing with this series. Y'all can go ahead and enjoy it in my stead <3
