If I could give this 1 million stars, I would. I listened to this on audio, mostly with my husband who doesn't like steamy books, and we were both dying laughing. The ending was *chef's kiss*. I can't wait to read book two

This one took me awhile to get into. I think maybe I just wasn't in the right mood for it? Not sure but it felt a lot longer than the first two.

I can't relate to being rich, but I can relate to the part about seeking everyone else's approval and being in love with someone no one approves of, along with the abuse. This was the perfect amount of fluff, heartache, emotional turmoil, comedy, romance, and everything else I look for in a rom com.

Creepy, chilling, spine tingling. I got goosebumps which is impressive for me. I just wish there was more depth to Adrian as a character & more backstory on the family.

I liked the story x that it was spicy. However, I was disappointed since everyone had led me to believe it was so spicy, the plot got lost. That didn't appear to be the case, not that I only wanted to read it for the spice.
