Complicated
For me, a romance book like this has to deliver at least (if not all) 1. good sex scenes, 2. sexy tension, banter, and yearning, 3. loveable and captivating romance.
This book didn't deliver fully on any. We get some of #2, but the characters didn't feel real. Choices made (often complete 180s) didn't make sense or happened way too quickly. We get lots of spice, but most the scenes were boring. They relied on the consensual play aspects to add any level of excitement. #3 doesn't happen. There is "romance," but way too underdeveloped and unbelievable.
Honestly disappointed! Also, I'm tired of the ex girlfriend/mean girl trope that is used to drive the barely there plot line. It's in so so many of these books. Check trigger warnings!
