A Dangerous Beauty by Sophia Nash
2.0
Super Special heroine (~beautiful eyes~, so many names because of how special she is, can out-athletic anyone at anything even after 15 years of no practice), shitty boundary-pushing hero. I was invested mostly in the family drama, but even that was underwhelming.
Basically: the heroine's big scandal is that someone allegedly saw her and a dude she crushed on having sex on the beach. She refuses to marry him to save her reputation and runs away. Later it turns out that her sister, who was ~too embarrassed to say anything~ was the one with her crush instead. There's no real reason why Sophia wouldn't just fess up and marry the guy she was in a secret relationship with anyway, the author just needed something bad to happen to Rosamund so she could suffer for the drama.
I was expecting the crush's shit dad to have faked a scandal so that they'd have access to Rosamund's dowry, so the actual resolution was highly disappointing.
