Off the bat I’ll say that I like this story. I went through this one pretty quick and was an easy read, I never felt a slog, so for me that counts for a lot. The story was interesting in all its points! Unfortunately for me it never went past just interest, I never got ‘obsessed’ or ‘needed to know what happens next’. The major revelation at the end, while I did not guess ahead of time, did not surprise me, but it did still get a reaction out of me. And some other dirty secrets that came afterward did end up surprising me! In all I liked it, it was a good read, not sure if I’ll read another

A nice legal thriller! A little predictable but nonetheless still enjoyed it. Seems like Yasmine was the true villain.
