This book is a little corny at times, but has a good overall plot. I like that the plot is centered around something different and it's refreshing not to have a basic romance book setting.

The book was overall a good romance, and the diversity was great to see, however in my opinion, the book was suddenly ruined when

the epilogue showed that Zahra was pregnant.

Another disappointing part of the book was

how quick Rowan seemed to overcome his mental struggles in the end, as it seemed to just resolve instead of show that he was working on himself and improving instead of Zahra constantly forcing him to overcome his issues.</spoilers>

The best way to go into this book, in my opinion at least, is to go in not expecting much. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of good things about this book and I particularly like the disability representation which is sorely under-represented in the literary field. However, I believe it is best read as a fun, raunchy at times, quick romance read. It is neither a literary masterpiece nor a absolute car crash and is a great read for inbetween 'heavier', more intense reads. I certainly enjoyed it (for the most part, I found it dragged a little towards the end) and am looking forward to continuing to the triology.
