This book was really good I loved how independent Emma was and that she insisted on paying for her own food when they were out despite Marcus being a billionaire. Marcus obsession with her drove a lot of his actions and Emma’s fear of becoming her mother drove a lot of her actions. I can’t wait to read what happens in the next book.
