I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! I thought it was gonna be trashy romance but it was actually a highly entertaining urban fantasy with slow burn romance. And it was funny at times!

It's a fun read. It's gotta superhero vibes that are cool. I could see something similar in a DC comic. The romance is interesting, and I'm curious to see where it goes in the future.

The prose doesn't always flow well,  and character descriptions are odd at times. It takes a while for the plot to start moving.
