It wasn't as horrible as everyone said.  This is my first Anna Huang book that I didn't DNF.
I did enjoy the story, it has a slow beginning and slow end but it's was a nice, softer dark romance. (Does that make sense?) 
Anyway, once Vivian and Dante were actually attempting to be a couple the banter! The jokes!! Omg loved it. Dante groveling and courting *chefs kiss*
Dark, quite brooding MMC with a quick witty fierce FMC who are both stubborn, hot, and funny when they want to be??? AAhh Sign me up 🫰🏾✨️


 
 That being said... I do have one negative thing about the lovely Anna. 
She's SUPER repetitive. There is so much telling of emotions and thoughts over and over rather than showing us or letting us infer. It could have been 50-100 pages shorter without the constant inner monologuing. 
 I feel like she killed her own banter with it.  
The moments that didn't have  monologuing I was kicking my little feet and in shocked with how these characters were just vibing 


Lets see if KO Pride is better bc I will be continuing

I was super hesitant to start this because I didn't really vibe with the Twisted series (sorry!) but one of my friends *loves* Ana Huang so I decided to give her another chance.

This was slow at first and I wasn't really invested but once their relationship got more real, I was all in. Grumpy hero who's only soft for the heroine 🥹 it just never gets old.

The break-in aftermath 😭😭😭 that's when I was sold not only on this book but on Dante!!!! what a man. what a rude bitch but also what a man. truly. have i told you that anthony bridgerton is my favourite bridgerton.

I was soo scared of the third-act drama but Dante's groveling was *chef's kiss* They somehow just got cuter after their drama 🥰

Excited to read book 2 but especially excited for Dominic and his wife's story!

Obsessed with anything Ana writes. Incredible. I loved this book, she wrote the enemies to lovers and forced proximity so well. I genuinely love a book where the female character develops so much in her confidence and becomes strong enough to fight for herself and speak her truth, it inspires me so much. Dante, I’m obsessed🤤
limo scene, I’ve said enough. There is just something about the way he fell for her, she consumed him in the end and he was possessive over her, which I love in a romance.
Another 5 star read from Ana Huang🫶🏻 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ spice level 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

I loved the vibe of the book I did kinda burn out toward the end but we powered through. My favorite scene is when they’re in the Vahalla club together and inattentively fall in love with each other. I didn’t like how she wouldn’t move in with him at the end, like I understand why but I still just wish she sucked it up. Hands together for Edward and Greta for carrying the book🙌🏻.

Beautiful relationship development and very spicy
