Thank you to Valentine PR for the e-arc in exchange for an honest review

Vanessa Vale and Helen Hardt have done it again!!

This book was absolutely wonderful. I enjoyed it just as much, if not more than the first book in the series, and I'm on the edge of my seat now waiting for book number three. I have to say - usually, I'm not a fan of insta-love. But here, it works. Sadie and Miles had me falling in love with them from the first like, two chapters. I mean, they really had a connection! And their spark just kept growing throughout the book. I loved seeing how their dynamic worked, and each page had me on the edge of my seat, wanting more and more.

Like in [b:Scarred|61411293|Scarred (The Billion Heirs #1)|Vanessa Vale|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1657315777l/61411293._SY75_.jpg|96897539], Flawed had a wonderful, powerful female MC. It was so exciting to see Sadie able and ready to defend herself, and its one of the things that I adore about this series thus far. I love a powerful female MC, and Sadie is definitely one of those.

Unlike its title, this book is not at all flawed (haha, get it?) I 100% recommend this, and Scarred. I will now be waiting for the next one and doing nothing else

I received this e-arc from Netgalley in exchange for a honest review

This one was very cute! I think I probably would've enjoyed it more if I had picked up the other two books first (but honestly, that's a personal problem), but having not read those, I found this one easy to follow nonetheless. The premise was cute, and just the right amount of cheesy - they like each other, but they want to be just friends? Sign me up!! It had everything that I love about a good, fluffy rom-com.

That being said, I just couldn't get into it right away. bummer. At times, I found the plot just to be drawn out, and it was hard to keep me hooked - the way I like my romance books to be.

I really did enjoy it - I just wish it was faster paced.
