I really liked this book, it was cute and had holesome and heart fluttering scenes, but I thought it had way too many sex scenes and it could have been a lot shorter. There were times that I would just get bored and didn't want to keep on reading but at the end it was fine, nothing to exceptional but not ordinary either. Above average but not much.

He is way too possesive and the relationship is super toxic. Hoped for something else.

Okay first off loved it definitely better than twisted love . I will say that because the book takes place over four years there’s so much detail and it moves so fast. It all blends together nicely though. The emotional aspect is there and it really just tugs and crushed your heart strings. Definitely a rollercoaster ride but a pretty good one at that. On to twisted hate….

It is a good book. It was pretty predictable but there was a side plot that was unexpected. If yu dont like dark books and you need
a happy ending
then this book is for you.

This was sweet. Rhys' description was unrealistic and I found it too fast paced to get any real relationship building in the first half. Towards the end it felt like we were scrambling to tie up the lose ends because they didn't really make sense with the storyline.
It was enjoyable but it was lacking in plot planning and proper foreshadowing, in my opinion.

A forbidden, royal, body guard, slow burn, enemies to lovers romance? Absobloodylutely yes please!
Bridget is a strong minded sunshine who dreams of falling in love one day. She is suddenly thrust into the line of succession when her brother abdicates the throne. Rhys is a brooding and possessive grump who happens to develop a soft spot for princess Bridget after several years of being responsible for keeping her safe as her bodyguard.
I really loved Bridget and Rhys’ story, ughh. This book felt long but for all the right reasons, it was a journey and I loved living said journey alongside these characters. It didn’t feel rushed like some other instant-love romance books and I loved that about it. It happens over a realistic timeframe across several years, and the multiple POV gave us both of their inner monologues so we got to see the attraction grow for each of them in real time. And I am OBSESSED with the two of them together.
At times this book was cute as hell, and at others it was incredibly steamy🥵. And boy does this book provide quotes to die for in both the cute bracket AND the steamy bracket, holy moly!
Would recommend, so much better than the first book of this series.
Satisfactory ending? Yes.
