I enjoyed enough to read the second book. I picked this up after hearing it described as bringing back yearning in books. I looove how slow the burn is but it really went on for too long as one sided for me to have gotten what I needed out of it, which made some parts fall really flat for me. Here’s hoping for some real solid groveling in the next book though.
