I am a really slow reader and I read this entire book in one week. This book is everything I could want and more. This book had me laughing, crying, and was impossible to put down. I probably never shut up about this book, I absolutely loved every second of reading it.

Fantastic book! Really loved Rowan’s and Zahra’s romance. The chemistry they have is amazing and the growth that Rowan shows is heartwarming. 

Loosing half a star due to one element of lying with a trope that is mostly seen in YA that I didn’t think should be in an adult romance

So it’s not a bad book per say. As a person with a disability I don’t know how I feel about the sister character being portrayed as she was? The main character was nice and I liked her. The male lead has some good qualities. My main problem was the weird lip service we got with the male lead being the boss, acting as if he understood why being a boss and romantically involved with his employee would be bad and then abused his power? Like constantly stating he got the power imbalance and then abusing it. Perhaps I’m just not into the control and power kink they have going here but the main girl had a really good case for a nightmare harassment charge, not even just work place harassment? Please understand with all of that said I didn’t dislike the book or find it unpleasant just a bit hypocritical and out of touch of how scary work place sexual harassment is especially when your entire family works in a place.

The best way to go into this book, in my opinion at least, is to go in not expecting much. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of good things about this book and I particularly like the disability representation which is sorely under-represented in the literary field. However, I believe it is best read as a fun, raunchy at times, quick romance read. It is neither a literary masterpiece nor a absolute car crash and is a great read for inbetween 'heavier', more intense reads. I certainly enjoyed it (for the most part, I found it dragged a little towards the end) and am looking forward to continuing to the triology.
