Glyndon is just a sweetheart. I love how much she cares about everyone. And I hated that Devlin used her compassion and empathy for others against her. I'm so happy he got what was coming for him in the end.
I will say I think my favorite character so far in this series just from this book alone was Brandon. I can't wait to get to his book. But I'm also excited for all the other characters books as well.
I absolutely recommend this. And I'm excited to get into Creighton and Annika's book next. I really loved their interactions in this book, so I feel like theirs is gonna be a really fun one.

I stopped within 30 pages and the chapter still remains an issue for me (I will explain below).
I tried again this time with the audiobook and it was a way better experience.
It is not quite an ennemies to lovers but we can relate.
Virgin and awakening FMC
Psychopath MMC
Secret societies (along with mafia vibes)
He falls first
Now I have two issues (big ones):
- the first “spice scene” and how it is treated all along the book.
- the POV of two characters (one chapter each) that give no information whatsoever. These don’t add anything to the story or the other characters. It adds pages but nothing to the plot.
Nevertheless the narrators are really good. So thanks to them.

The author of the book did an excellent job in portraying the character of Killian as a psychopath, which was evident from the start of the book. The author's writing skills deserve appreciation for selling it so well.
However, there was a plot twist involving Devlin that left me furious.
The book had many characters, which made it a bit confusing to keep track of them all. Thankfully, the book came with a family chart, which helped me follow the plot.
Overall, the book had enough plot and character development, making it a bearable read. However, the book could have been shorter than its 400 pages.
