3.0

i went into this book with complete opposite expectations to what i got. there were many times within the first half when i felt like putting it down solely because of the writing style. it just felt too basic for me i just didnt like it. but when the pace and plot started picking up it got better and easier to read but it still just wasnt a book i would have picked up based on the plot. i just loved the cover lol. so really it just comes down to my own personal opinion but it wasnt the best for me so its an average 3/5 stars.

This was an incredible read. The slow build of tension at the beginning gave the plot real emotional weight, and the ending had me sobbing. I was really glad that

Daunis and Jamie didn’t end up together, giving Daunis some control and agency in a situation with a massive power imbalance
