Haven't read her first novel. Kind of just a personal preference that I don't like romances where characters are immediately obsessed with each other for seemingly no reason. It got better toward the second half but idk I tend to prefer a more subtle/intricate approach to love stories - so this just wasn't the book for me. Also lowkey found their internal monologues a tad annoying, and none of the side characters were well developed (having not read The Spanish Love Deception). Good for a quick read though and anyone into romance tropes will enjoy.
