This was pretty average. I found it boring at times and the smut was uncomfortable. The simultaneous povs in each chapter were confusing in audio. The part I liked in the book was probably the end with the ball, otherwise the book was kind of a drag and bit too ridiculous. The characters knew each other for far too short time and lots of stuff didn't make sense and made me angry. I don't mind if a book is set in a short period of time and the characters fall for each other, but it has to be done well and feel like they get to know each other. Here though they kept pointing at the fact that they didn't know each other long and it kept bugging me. The bonding they had didn't feel that much. What we saw on page was them talking about their dead parents. There was a moment where it was said they were talking for a while after sex but we didn't see much of that and what we saw was over dead parents. Leo had some bad reactions that made him sound like he lacks any kind of logical thinking.
