5.0

A far more emotionally complex book than the (rather terrible) cover would have you believe. As is typical for Alyssa Cole, satisfying commentary about everything from personal identities to migration to capitalism to the patriarchy is baked into a steamy romp and topped off with a number of fun tropes as well as a nice mental space for those coping with parental loss to work through some of the associated emotions.

The first section of the book is easier to read if you’ve recently read the rest of the series, but it’s manageable as a stand-alone read.
