This one was tough to get through. I found myself struggling to keep going around the 40% mark. It almost went into my DNF shelf but I pushed myself to finish because I hate leaving a book midway, especially if a majority of my time was invested in it.
I will now share things that irked me during this read:
Not even 4% in and the alpha billionaire male(Bennett) is already making a move on his intern Chloe. Had I accidentally bought the first book? Or blanked out and skipped a couple of pages? I mean, where is the buildup? You really want me to believe Chloe would allow her boss to rip her panties off And take advantage of her in the conference room without a backstory?
Also, what is it with the constant underwear ripping. It’s sexy once, maybe twice but it went on for far too many times that as soon as Bennett’s grimy fingers went for Chloe’s waistband, I’d roll my eyes and skim past the ripping and storing them in his pocket part. And what kind of sick and disgusting person would store used panties in their office desk? That drawer must be *insert puking emoji*
There was too much sex for my liking. Surprising, I know. Maybe I’m moving past my Smut faze ?
Not enough story or character development.
It was just.. there.
And apparently this was the first Twilight fan-faction before 50 Shades of Grey was even a thing ??
So if Twilight fan faction is your thing then you might just enjoy this one.
