3.25

No strong representation of diverse characters or minority identities.

Quick Take: A unique spin on the "billionaire romance," yet falls short because of its unnecessary drama and conceited Hero.

The Legacy is a complicated book to review as there are so many facets to its plot, which I believe resulted in quite a few of these plot points being underdeveloped... or not as fleshed out as they could have been. However, what I appreciated about the novel was Allen's unique spin–and realistic interpretation–of a "billionaire romance novel."
