The first book in this series was much better. This was a difficult book. Tristan was such an awful hero for a romance novel, full of sexism and belittling Lucy, until the very end of the book, when he was suddenly the perfect book boyfriend. Lucy was a trope of a dumb heroine, knowing that getting involved with a man she disliked so much was a bad idea and doing it anyway. But because HEA, the massive waving red flags were miraculously cleared away. I think if Tristan had been just a rake an not a sexist asshole, I might have enjoyed this as much as others seem to. I couldn’t look past it.

It's an enjoyable read - I think of all the characters from this series so far, Lucie is the one I connect with the most (the whole career oriented, won't let a man interfere kind of thing). It was interesting to read this as the nation has a conversation about women losing the right to control their own bodies.

4.75/5⭐️ | 2/5🌶 | 1/3⚠️ | 18+

Genre: historical romance

Diversity: feminist

Moods: Tense, romantic, feminist

Pace: medium to fast

Device(s): multiple POV

Trope(s): Enemies to lovers, forced business partners, wager

Notes: expertly crafted enemies to lovers - new “trope” that I’d love to see more of: forced business partners - Tristan and Lucie are both complex and made for each other - rare in a book series that I like the second book more than the first! Loved it!
