I regret everything I've ever said about this book. It's starts off pretty slow, but after the Rite, things start to pick up. I've never really been a fan of the "Enemies to lovers" trope but this was pretty good. I wouldn't recommend for anyone with low patience though. Stick it though the end, you'll enjoy it ❤❤❤❤

This was quite the wild ride. I definitely think that this was way too long and there was a lot of repetition, especially in Poppy's inner monologue. The romance was alright and I thought the ending was explosive enough for me to be interested in reading the next.
