I don't know why this book has so many bad reviews. It is clearly not reaching the correct audience. Yes, there are a lot of reveals/twists in the last 20% of the book, and yes some of them include dark moments, but this book isn't dark. Or at least not dark romance dark. It would be a nice thriller for a dark romance reader as a pallette cleanser, though. The twist that a lot of the bad reviews seem to have a problem with (and claim it is not supported by the actions of the characters in the first 80% of the book), I predicted. I could not have predicted it if it wasn't foreshadowed! But there was a major twist that I did not see coming! This was a good time, and I was here for it. You read this for the vibes, not the writing. I've already started the second book.
Okay, I had a tough time with this rating because honestly I was pretty unimpressed with the majority of this book (mostly because the characters are so unlikeable) but holy shit that twist! I literally just sat here with my jaw dropped for the last few chapters because I was shook.

happy mistake lol I was looking for the arrangement by robyn Harding off a tiktok recommendation so I didn't see the author name very well when the creator showed it, I just typed in the title and I often get different cover versions on libby so I didn't think much about it. but while listening of course I was like wait a min and then went back to the video to figure out I check out the wrong audiobook but I was here for it lol. like the amount of like ridiculousness craziness that kept happening I just could not stop listening for it felt like I a throw back to a soap opera. definitely recommend if you wanting like a guilty read I am looking forward to the rest of the series.

3.5. Short, mindless thriller. Kind of had me thinking it was fine enough til the end and then major eye roll at the final twist.
