The Wildflower by J.L. Beck
1.0

Like I knewww I wouldn't like this but I still wanted to see how it ended after all the stuff that happened in the end of book 1

There was a lot going on basically and a lot of thoughts but no action especially from our main man Drew. For me, he cannot be redeemed, even when he is professing love etc he is being selfish and I cannot abide by that, here is one quote
"If I want to carry you around for the rest of my life, then I will. You're my woman, Bel, and I'll do whatever I please with you."


Notice how he's not thinking whether she want to be carried? Its different when you want something compared to when you are being forced to do something. I know its minor but this is one of the stuff I picked up about Drew that made me unable to like him, there are a lot of more of course, another one being
Spoiler HE DRUGS HER WITHOUT TELLING HER because for their plan to work she has to "look surprised" but he made her feel scared and when she saw the syringe and asked him what he was, inside of dude to explain what was happening he just drugged her


Felt sorry for Bel, her brother was a douche and so was her man and she was just letting them do whatever to her like girly :( however she mentioned that she was not like other girls so *shrugs*. Also Bel kepy telling us she had changed but I didn't see it?

At the end of the book, it went longer than it needed to? I think the author was trying to set up book three so introducing all these new characters etc :( and then when it finally ended there were two epilogues, both in Drew's POV :( so yeah that was fun

Oh and there was a bit where it turned into beautiful disaster Drew suddenly becoming a boxer, he does this one time and wins and this is never repeated or talked about again but then this led to the worse smut scene ever
Spoiler he makes her ride his boot?! bare in mind that's he's favourite pair of shoes sooooo he wears them all the time, he didn't clean it beforehand, the whole time I reading that my face was like I had just sucked a lemon, fun stuff


Overall, I did not enjoy and I shall not be repeating :)
