A pretty decent "spicy" read. The writing was good and it kept me interested until the end (that ending tho!! I was NOT expecting that).
(Minor spoliers ahead but not really?)
Abbi was a little annoying at times and Henry is shady asf and becomes unlikable pretty fast.
Check trigger warnings because although their relationship was a slow burn, it got VERY spicy quickly. And some of them were borderline s**xual assault.

This is a story of a wealthy man who gaslights a naive young woman and lures her with the promise of a job she wants at a remote Alaskan hotel. Instead his aim all along was to make her his personal assistant/sex slave. It's human trafficking and he admits he selected her because of her low self-esteem and abuse by a previous partner. He's disgusting... but he's hot and she's too stupid to pay attention to all the red flags. She readily gives up every moral she's held for a lifetime.
This is pure Jeffrey Epstein fan fiction and its gross. The cliffhanger ending just adds insult to injury.
