- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
3.5
Would have been higher for me except for a couple of completely unnecessary uses of the n word. That really pulled me out of the ending. That being said, the author switches POV’s seamlessly and that adds a lot to the tension. Under everything it’s just a love story.
