NOT for the faint of heart.

I had a really hard time warming up to Wolfe, I'm still not sure he can go on my 'good graces', but he isn't necessarily on my 'shit list'. Fran and Wolfe have a very unusual relationship only those two can navigate and nurture, let's just say, if I was in Fran's shoes, I would cut a btch and leave him on the floor balless.

I have never wanted to smash a main characters' heads throw a window in my life, and I don't think I ever will again.

10/10 will recommend.

My feelings on this book are extremely mixed, and I wish that I could feel comfortable giving this book a three-star but due to some of the topics and plot points in this book, giving it a three-star rating just wouldn't sit right with me. 

As we start the book, we are immediately introduced to our two main characters, whose names I can't remember, regardless of the fact that I finished the book this morning. They immediately get off on the wrong start to the book, so bad in fact that it drew me into the book immediately. I mean who doesn't love a good enemies-to-lovers romance?

However, my problems lie with the repeated cheating, OM drama and OW drama that appears in the book. Not only did this happen at the beginning of the book, which in most cases I can get passed and just brush it off, but this was still happening towards the end of the book, like I'm talking passed the 70% mark.

If the cheating was removed from the plot and the book I think that it could have been a three-star book or even a four-star book if I was in a good mood when I was reading it.

other than that, the only thing worth nothing is that it was a quick and easy read.
