virgin

, though.

Horrible book. The writing is mediocre and a complete replica of the rest of the books in the series. Apart from the main character, the rest of the characters are predictable and hard to love. Slow paced because some of the internal monologues (especially Landon's) are incredibly repetitive to the point where it gets boring. The plot in of itself is not only repetitive but predictable and unentertaining, the only contrast is Mia's backstory which adds interst to the story. The ending left much to be desired, it felt rushed and, in my opinion, was not thoroughly resolved. Honestly, we know what we sign up for when we read a smut book like this, but this book doesn't even meet those standards. This felt like a complete copy paste of the rest of the series, incredibly underwhelming and overall boring.

Mia becomes the object of Landon's obsession, his muse. 

My least favourite of the series. 

Tropes: dark, psychopath, enemies to lovers, boy obsessed

why does RK write the same characters for every book. it’s like every time i get my hopes up from crumbs in a previous book when i get to their book they’re just a carbon copy of most of her other MCs. i wasn’t delusional or anything but i did get a little excited for this one thinking the characters/plot would be more interesting but (surprising to no one, i’m sure) that was not the case. it was boring and the prose was just weird (almost like purple prose but like a tween wattpad author’s attempt at it) i hope after the final instalment of this series rina takes a step back for a while to work on her crap before pumping out lacklustre clones of her previous work. i’m being overly harsh bc i’ve read a lot worse before but i genuinely do think she has potential and i’ve even really enjoyed some of her work, so it’s just frustrating.
