Disappointing. They fight and have sec the whole book. mo relationship development

If anything they seem worse together

The plot barely progresses and is confusing at that.

Loved the continuation of the story.  There was 1 chapter in the middle that the transition from one place to another was oddly abrupt and the end explanation was left a little too open ended and then just cut to a feel good final chapter of later on,  felt like there was a chapter missing in these 2 places to round the story off. Other than that,  I loved the story and the journey.

3.5

For me this was more of a back story book that really got you connected with the characters and their traumas with some sprinkles of happy moments and spicy scenes. While also showcasing how the character navigate through the traumas even in times of strife. I will be waiting in anticipation for book 3.
