Unfortunately, I went into this novel blind so to speak. None of the reviews I skimmed had any mention of the events of Chapter 1. If you are someone that is not able to handle detailed Sexual Assault in novels, please do NOT read Chapter 1 or when the events start to take shape in the direction of SA skip to the end of the chapter. It's very easy for someone to get the gist of what happens without having to read the details.
I don't think my mind and body will come back from reading the detailed assault in Chapter 1 to try and complete the book. So please be warned, do more research than I did.

Loved this story and the characters and their banter. So funny in certain parts that I was laughing out loud. The ending just seem kind of “meh” to me compared to the rest of the story, didn’t really have much of a climax, which is why I didn’t give it 5 stars

The original concept is really good, however the author does not pull it off well. Further, there is no real ending to the book. It just sort of... ends.
