trashbinfluencer's review against another edition

Historical inaccuracies, awful main characters, inexorably slow-pacing & redundant, pointless writing & plotlines.

3.0

I don’t have the words to even begin to explain how problematic this book is, but those scenes were mostly def good.

Am I supposed to forgive Royce for being a piece of shit because of  the author’s efforts to blur the line of consent. Dude intended to/did and was willing to SA Jennifer (which is this even a medical name??? Lmk) but it’s ok because even tho she knew she was being coerced/forced she also “wanted it????” Make it make sense. YOU CANT.

Don't read this book if lack of consent is triggering or a no-no for you. It definitely ruined what could've been a cute and simple enemies-to-lovers for me.
