As stated in my review of book 1, I enjoy plot with my smut, and while the books after 1 were better in my opinion, this one completely goes backwards. I enjoyed the MMF relationship shown, the way “Belle” got both Beast and “Gaston” in this one. But I think I can count on one hand how many pages did not involve smut. While it was certainly spicy, it’s just a lot. The relationship stuff basically got figured out by the midway point and the plot at the end felt like a brief add-on. It made for the second half to be quite repetitive and even boring.
