I almost dnfed this one, but I kept going! 2 strikes... first strike for me part 1 was to long, not necassary at all. Strike two was the 'blackmailing thing of them f*.'

Tik tok has spoiled me the heck out of this books so I knew what the storyline was about ... So I know the charachters are in the same bloodline. Still found that weird. Also I don't find this man attractive. In one chapter he depends her to take her clothes of and she is unsure... give me the ick...

what i liked: literally almost everything, the main characters are loveable and there is a definitive arc of growth for both of them. my heart sang when they had their aha moments of realizing how they wanted to define the relationship and my heart literally ached with them when they had to make difficult decisions about duty vs. heart. i felt everything and got swept up in the story telling. 

what turned me off a bit: im just impatient and so sometimes i think think a slow burn is a little too slow. but again that’s because i just get so excited to get to the juicy part, which ultimately makes me appreciate the slow burn of it.
