SLOW BURN!! Surprisingly, I liked it! I think I liked it better than Ace/Elena. Christian was to die for and Gianna was a perfect romance FMC. She had multiple healthy relationships with women around her and men that respected her. She was funny, sassy, and stood up for herself... which I feel like are things that are difficult to find in some romance books. Would definitely recommend.

The plot was the smut if you're asking.THE trauma that the characters went through seemed just an excuse for them to be dark and broody and make them more interesting,especially CHRISTIAN .THIS man is not hot ,he is a  misogynistic ass , controlling and manipulative ,went to therapy that didn't feel like therapy.

Awwww Gianna and Christian’s relationship is sooo cute. I love how she is the first one to finally show him what he’s missing. The enemies to lovers was sooo well done. Loved this book and loved this series
