It was just bad. I know it's my fault for choosing this, but I wouldn't have thought that the crash between spice and church would be THAT bad. Spicy Scenes and praying at the same time? Why? Also without bible knowledge a lot of passages don't make a lot of sense.
I kinda liked Poppy so I don't want to give the worst score... but Tyler? It felt like the author thought: "Mhmm... I need a Hobby to not just make him a cut out flat figurine... Ah let him just mention The Walking Dead a lot and that's it."
Also. The thing with his sister.
And the end felt just absolutely unnecessary.
The only thing about the ending was a bit of her POV and that it was finally the ending.

Pros:
- Tyler’s dilemma is original and thought provoking. The heart of this book is undeniably great.
- The writing is phenomenal. This book has some of the most beautiful prose I’ve ever read.
- The smut was 10/10
Cons:
- 0 communication between the two characters causes most of the plot.
- Poppy must have been written by a man and you can’t convince me otherwise. From beginning to end she is a caricature of a woman.
Overall, a good read if you want your smut to have plot, but the cons significantly brought down what could have been a 5 star read.
