˗ˏˋ ★ REVIEW ★ ˎˊ˗

There were so many iconic lines from this book.  It was an entertaining read, it was funny, angsty, and spicy.  The characters had depth to their personalities and while the plot wasn’t what I was expecting it kept my interest.

There were a few parts that made me question how this book was going to end before grabbing the good old plot twists.  The reveal to Rhys dad was not expected but was a nice plot twist.

This is a solid read. It's a blend of the cliché bodyguard trope and the enemies trope. The charecters grow some, but this is definitely more of a plot exist for the relationship book.

While the book was amazing and had plot twists, similar to the first book of the series, I feel like it was a little bit hard to get into considering the amount of erotica in the book. If that’s something you’re into, this is the book for you, but if not I would just be weary while reading. Overall I did enjoy reading the book!
