This book was pretty good, but not amazing. It’s definitely my least favorite Penelope Douglas book I’ve read so far. I think the main problem that I had with it is that I didn’t find the characters overly likable or relatable. I also think that the book could’ve been a little bit shorter, although I really liked the end. I think the way a lot of the story played out made sense. This book is VERY spicy. I’d recommend 18+. I feel like some things were under developed in favor of the spice. However, it was a good read overall.
