This book is bonkers - just absolutely bananas - and it ends on a huge cliffhanger that had my heart pounding at 1030pm, and not in a good way. I was *not ready* for Kennedy Ryan, yāall.
Thereās a pipeline protest! Thereās an Antarctic expedition! There are missing and murdered Indigenous women! There is a trip to Amsterdam (complete with tulips)! Thereās a PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN?!? A trip to Central America to distribute vaccines! A billionaire boyfriend who can provide private jet dates! There are lies of omission! There is sex! There is swoon!
I loved Lennix, the heroine. She is brilliant and brave and so resolved in her convictions. Maxim, well, heās okay. He has a possessive streak that borders on invasive, and despite very clearly knowing that this is a book about the super wealthy, I picked it up and was once again reminded that super-wealthy protagonists piss me off. Try all you want to make him a āgoodā billionaire, Iām just envisioning Elon Musk. š„“
šš» All told I think this is definitely worth your time if youāre looking for a book with love in it but also with a LOT of other stuff going on. Anticipate the cliffhanger and mind the CW (Iāve put them in the comments).
