I was disappointed with this story. Instead of the expected dynamic between the main characters, it focused on the male lead's encounters with other females. While I appreciate a well-crafted "steamy" scene, the constant interludes between the MMC and various girls, excluding the MFC, left me disenchanted. 

The constant deviations diluted the potential for a compelling love story. How can a character claim love while entangled with others? Implausible connections and minimal main-character interaction left the story lacking. The excessive focus on secondary characters diminished the impact.

Nope. Just nope. I’ve read loads of bully romances lately and this is the first one I truly disliked. I just couldn’t stomach having to read, in detail, Drake’s sexual encounters with all his “side pieces.” I literally skipped those pages because I had no interest in all his hookups. To me, the slow burn should lead up to him and the MC but there was barely any interaction between Drake and Tarryn. It was just awful. And who the heck pays $10k to a guy, to basically use his FB profile to message the MC to learn about her. Like what?!? This one just left me frustrated. Drake’s character traits gave me whiplash. Nothing made sense and once again.. I love angsty, heated scenes, but not between the guy who keeps saying he’s falling for the MC..all the while constantly hooking up with other girls. I believe there’s even one place where he says he’s falling for the MC but then literally says he’s not giving up his side pieces. It makes the whole thing a total sham. No thanks, next.
