Honestly, I think this book is more 2 or 2.5 stars. Hear me out. It had A LOT of potential. The story itself could have been great, but the execution fell completely flat. The biggest issue? It was boring. I was bored. Absolutely nothing happened until literally the last few pages of the book and even then - it was lacking. The “romance” in this book made absolutely no sense. Again, the idea was great. A guard/prisoner forbidden romance? Sounds yummy right? Not in this book. There was no tension, no chemistry. Nothing. So when all of a sudden they were all about each other you have no idea where it came from. The MMC was completely dull and the FMC was whiny and turned out to be manipulative. So I didn’t care for any of the characters. Not to mention the random old woman that talks in third person. Ehh…yeah I definitely won’t be wasting my time reading the next book.

Had a lot of potential but it just didn’t reach it. BUT I have high hopes for book 2, I love the characters and the plot and I don’t want to give up on it
