Meh. 
It was interesting at first, even though it felt like I had already read that story somewhere, but i kept on reading. Nothing special happens to be honest and it was a bit predictable. 
They fell in love like nothing

He was all “i hate you, I’m gonna kill you” and then after discovering her mate mark he became all lovey dovey.
The ending was definitely rushed and too much of a cliché. They show absolutely no emotion  when he mentions she’s pregnant. She only asks how did he know and he goes “my magic”. Okay. Cool

I finished it in two days, I was hooked. A very nice read, the beauty and the beast x one thousands and one night retelling was really interesting. Not as much romance as I would have liked, but  i enjoyed it still.
