I thoroughly enjoyed this book and read it in three days. It is by no means a literary masterpiece, but that is not always the point of reading. I personally read for escapism and that is exactly what this book gave me! Every time I picked this book up, I was completely immersed in the world and did not want to leave! I thought this book was a standalone but upon finishing, it is quite clear that there is much more juicy drama left in this story to deal with. I know it might be wrong of me to say, but I think I like Blake more than the main male character. Don’t get me wrong, I love Callum too. However, it’s just something about a broody, mysterious, and calculated fictional man who is secretly soft for the main female character. I need more Blake in my life STAT! 

Spice rating: 2.5-3 / 5 🌶️
