I almost dnfed this one, but I kept going! 2 strikes... first strike for me part 1 was to long, not necassary at all. Strike two was the 'blackmailing thing of them f*.'

Tik tok has spoiled me the heck out of this books so I knew what the storyline was about ... So I know the charachters are in the same bloodline. Still found that weird. Also I don't find this man attractive. In one chapter he depends her to take her clothes of and she is unsure... give me the ick...

Much better than the first book to me. The beginning of the book was very intriguing because I liked the troupe of body guard falling for his client. After the book settled in though it became slow paced for a little bit in the middle of the book but eventually picked back up. I liked the conflict of the romance, but the resolution was predictable. 

I wouldn't read this book if you are looking for good plot twists, while it has some they don't last very long for you to infer what might happen. Overall I liked that characters and their relationship and I didn't like slow pace in the beginning/middle parts.

This is me being generous  in one of my last books of this year. 

I adored Twisted Love so I flew right into  this book. Knowing it was going to be the least relatable. But yet I was I excited because  it's  a similar story to Young Royals except  adult level maturity and very straight   relationship.  I will say the age gap automatically  impacted this rating to. 

Both Bridget and Rhys were often the exact type of people  you expected them to be. And it was very boring sometimes  throughout  the storyline. That said they both are very plain, messy characters  that deserved each other. For mor e than one reason I'm glad I finished this one and can move on to Twisted Hated and Lies.
