Where do I even begin? This one was certainly very different from the first book in the series but definitely holds its own.

The one thing that stood out to me, much like book one was the plot. The plot was so freaking good?! I loved all the mystery and the plot twist! So good.

The romance, oh the romance! Finn Barlow is a man of so little words, but when he speaks, my god does he make me swoon. The spice level in this book is red hot too. 

Absolutely loved this book!
