This book just felt like it dragged on and on and on. Both Ryen and Misha felt very surface level, they did have some level of depth but I felt like it wasn't really dealt with in a way that could have been more impactful. I didn't really end up caring for either of them or any of the other characters or the plot.
I felt like the author relied a lot on the fact that Ryen and Misha already had years of friendship to make the readers want them together, and I felt like their relationship was really underdeveloped. I wish we saw more of them being friends as well as them having sex a lot, and in the end I didn't really care if they got together or not. 
Overall it was ok, it was just slowwww, especially towards the end.
