What a weird book...It's like a crossover of 50 Shades and Pride and PRejudice with none of the finesse of Jane Austen but also none of the rapey vibes of 50 Shades so like lose win? Idk. I weirdly enjoyed it because the smut was so freaky but also was deeply grossed out because of how overbearingly boorish and hypermasculine the romantic lead was. But I thought the pair was well suited in working through their issues together. It was a fun brainless read.
