Loved how fast-moving and engaging it was. Those are always good indicators of me enjoying and fully engaging with a book.

I also liked how it was kind of a combination of romance, thriller and crime which are my top 3 favourite genres. But that said, the crime/thriller aspect was a bit lacking but it’s understandable, considering the romance part is probably the main gist of the story.

However, it was a tad too spicy for me. I don’t mind smut but this one was downright dirty. It made me uncomfortable that every single interaction was almost purely sexual and 100% ends with sex. Kind of crazy that they did so many types of sex in a variety of places in a mere 300-page book - that just goes to show how much they did it.

The story itself was pretty enjoyable but I personally would have liked it more if they focused more on the emotional aspects of the relationship as opposed to the physical.
