Desperate Measures by Katee Robert
4.0

Four stars only cause I can’t rate it a 3.5

At this point I’ve consumed 3 of Katee’s books. So far this was my favourite.

Would I recommend this book to everyone? Hell no. It definitely has some potentially triggering content and can be a little intense at times with CNC and under-negotiated scenes. If anything I would highly recommend looking at the trigger warnings to double check.

Why would I give this a .5 if I could? Jasmine’s internal monologue about being in a gilded cage began to grate on my nerves around half way through and only continued to get more irritating the longer it went. Topped off with Jafar’s confusing lack of communication as to why he was keeping her out of the public just made this a frustrating dynamic. FFS. COMMUNICATION Y’ALL.

That being said, I was pleased with the resolution to the the plot.

If you plan to read this (or any of her books), just keep in mind that the vibes are smut first and plot second.
