I mostly read this book through the audiobook. I wanted something to listen while I worked and I already had this title in audible. I also want to precise that it is the first SJM book I ever read entirely.

Ok, now that the hows are out of the way, I have a very very important question:
Why was this good?
I'm not a fan of spicy books, and I knew that SJM books have a certain level of spice in them. But the scenes didn't bothered me that much. I just never thought I could enjoy one of her books.

Special mention to Lehaba (if you know you know).

It took a while for me to really get into the book. It was a slow start, and a lot of information is thrown at you in the first few chapters, so it made it difficult to process at first. But there are a ton of twists and turns that I never saw coming. I was on the edge of my seat by the end.
