I liked the premise of the book, however parts of the book fell through. There are a few major things that weren't executed well:
The characters feel stiff and lack any kind of nuances. They don't really have any personalities apart from their background which is trauma.
The romance part happened way too quickly and went way too far. I don't mind insta-love in books, however this kind of ruined the existing tension in the relationship.
In one of the scenes the use of a safe word was discussed, but when it was used it was completely disregarded. Total ICK.
Certain topics were added to the book, but weren't discussed properly and felt like the point of adding those was for the shock value such as, sexual assault, child abuse, and human trafficking.
I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that this book had character artwork, however it's all AI and all artwork of characters looks completely different.
The ending was kind of boring and predictable. And while I had fun reading this book, looking back I can't say it's of a great value.
