3.0

Great storyline but the timeliness is EXTREMELY rushed. What could have been spanned over weeks or months was just a few days. Shes making out with the mysterious boy turned prince after literally one day at this school?! The professor gets killed 3 days in and she's breaking down like he was her greatest friend. The timeline kills the emotions. And her character change happening over one paragraph in a single chapter after an argument is ridiculous. As I said, great storyline. But the story is extremely rushed. If the book was rewritten and expanded it could be so much more. It had so much potential until like ch 25ish, that's when the timeline went haywire.
