˗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.

Spice Level: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

POV: Duel, First Person

A really great book. Not sure if it’s better than the first part tho. It definitely had some great plot twists and a lot of tension in it.

I loved the book and I loved the story line however I did find it pretty repetitive throughout the book. I did love the pop ups of the other characters as well like Alex and Ava

Forbidden lovers. It took awhile for the spice to develop but once it did, it was pretty good. I liked this book but I knew where it was going from about page 100. The ending, while predictable, did make me happy.
