** [kinda mild?] spoilers alert **
I am DNFing this book for my own sake. It's not something wrong with the book and that's why I'm not rating it. Especially since it's indie and I like the author from social media, I do not want to give this book low rating.
I enjoyed the first 25% of the book and it did not dissaapoint. However, after some point we met Duncan and I had suspicion where the (romantic) plot was going, so I decided to check, even if it meant spoilers. And I was right. I'm glad I did that because if I continued I would be far more frustrated and sad when I find out for sure. Even by reading just bits of the second half made me cry angry tears.
The reason is one and it may not be everyone's reason but it's mine and it's significant for me: I hate the change of love interest in the middle of a story SO FUCKING MUCH. Especially if I grew attached to the first li. I want to burn down the fucking world when this happens, especially in a book that I'm reading solely for the romance part. It feels awful. It ruins the whole story for me.
Also... Erix deserves so fucking much better and Robin doesn't deserve him. Like, I like Robin as a protagonist BUT I HATE WHAT'S HAPPENING
