3.5

So I liked this book but most of this was smut which I was expecting but the smut definitely takes the focal point with the plot as a sideline story. Which this and the reason below is why the book is a 3.5 rating 

The smut was pretty good and it was never repetitive that's for sure but some of the kinks were just not for me and some of the kink scenes were a little embarrassing to read at times 

I will also say I love the development of both Jasmine and Jafar and their relationship together although I wish I could have seen a bit more of Jasmine coming into her own fruition more as a sole character.

Who'd have thought Jafar could be so hot?

Mate, this book was hot... Like I'll admit, I'm not one for a daddy kink but it didn't detract from my enjoyment of Jasmine and Jafar's story. Whilst this was far more sex than plot, I was here for it

I mean I didn’t expect much going into this book. Basically daddy Jafar and baby girl Jasmine have lots of fun times (as in fun times I mean A 3 CHAPTER SEX SCENE- golly gosh). Wasn’t stunning but wasn’t terrible, hence the 3 star rating

Skimmed trough most of it. Smut with no plot and lots of red flags.

Perfection. No notes. When people ask me what kind of relationship I want, I will simply hand them this book and walk away.
