This book was fun. It wasn't anything special, but it was fun. The main character, Darcy, was seriously flawed and I would call her an antagonist. She learned from her actions (kind of) but some of her decision in the book were pretty terrible. I was rarely on her side, which made the book less enjoyable. As for the romance, it was a SERIOUS slow burn. Like, down to the last pages slow. And I wouldn't say I was that enthralled with the pairing either. As the book progressed, I got less and less invested in the relationship. It should be the other way around, right? I still liked the two These are my two major complaints, but overall this book was a fun read. It dealt with bi relationships really well, which I really appreciated. I read it in two days, which is fast for me. If you are looking for a light and quick read, this would be a good option.
