i got this on Netgalley for an honest review.
👎🏼 thumbs down for me. i got through about 76% of it before deciding to DNF. truth be told, veyka and arran were unlikable. i just simply was not rooting for them as a couple or individually. i understand that veyka was seeking revenge for her brother, but … it really did not capture me the way i wanted it to.
while i typically skip open door spice, this was littered with it in almost every chapter that made it difficult to read. i read the CW and understood what i was getting into, ready to skip, but when its brought up almost all the time … it didn’t seem to me to add anything to the story plot.
overall, it just wasn’t for me. two stars ⭐️⭐️ … 😔
