It started out okay , and then just turned into a mess. The pacing kind of dies if your character Sleeps for over a week.  Then it just got unbelievable and some sort of weird fantasy about having five guys in love with one woman. The medical stuff was just… ridiculous, awkward, badly done. I can take spice or leave it but this was like, uncomfortable, non sexy sex?  And also so many minor characters having nothing to do with the story really had outsized insight into their feelings and thoughts. Seemed very out of place.  At one point it mentions one of the adult characters married a teenager? Idk, I hesitate with reviews but this just seemed like it could have been much better with some revisions.

Honestly, it isn't bad but there are to many unecessary povs.

This was good but the pacing was off for me. Some parts read soooooo slow but the parts with the action almost went by too fast. I’m curious to see where the story goes from here and if this ends up being more of a love triangle. Also the Nicolas feelings  revel is……something. 
I’m going to keep going because I’m intrested to see where this story goes.

Too confusing to wrap my head around. Why is it necessary to have so many peoples point of view? Could have been better.
