This was a decent book but it could've been like 150 pages shorter. It moved SO slowly.

🌶️ 3/5 multiple explicit scenes but the spice just wasn't spicing for me

🏳️‍🌈✊ Both characters are Black/mixed, I think? FMC is biracial (Black and white); I was a little unclear on MMC's parents' races, but he is Black. FMC is fat and she deals with fatphobia, both personally and societally. Props for the mental health & pro-therapy story lines; we love a king who's been in therapy for a decade lol

Overall I enjoyed this but felt it drug on at times. I was disappointed in the second act breakup and felt it wasn’t completely necessary for the story but I also feel that it made the character development better so I understand why it was there.

Contrary to a lot of people I liked the first half of the book way more than the second half. It became too long winded and too stereotypical, even for a rom-com.

It's okay, but I felt some parts were too stretched out. 
I love the character development, the sexual buildup, the banters, and the 'you following me' parts.
Hopping in Right Move right away.
