The only reason I decided to finish this book was bcoz I didn't want to carry it over to the new year.
Anyways this book was such a snoozefest. Honestly the main reason for me to dnf it was because I couldn't take that man and his dick obsession. It was like if he didn't mention his dick atleast once in every chapter, his story wouldn't have been complete. 🙄
Also the way he was said to be a psychopath, I mean the author, he himself n the character called him that but the characterstics of a psychopath was none existent. And the way RK tried to portray him as Walmart ver of Connor Cobalt wanted to make me jump of a hill.
I got nothing against Mia. She was OK. I just didn't expect her to be opposite to what I thought she was. Also the way she went after Landon for revenge but after that one scene, the revenge was literally forgotten and the way the book was called enemies to lovers trope was also misleading.
That twist in the last chapter was so ridiculous n half assed. Also RK's hate for her female characters needs to be study. Like she literally ruined two sisters relationship as a plot device just to make the male lead come out as a hero n only person helping Mia was weird.
I hate how everyone treated Maya. Like she was just a child when all that happened n it was traumatising for her too. Also she was getting manipulated by a sick person. She didn't deserve to be treated so badly.
Honestly if this is the the definition of favouritism for RK, I wish she never has any favourite characters just so she couldn't ruin them like she did Landon n give them a decent story.
Only good thing abt this book for me was NikoBran. The way their crumbs ate.
Now that NikoBran's book is out n I finished this after reading their book n seeing Landon's personality transplant, I have to say GOR should have been released after GOF. 🤷🏽♀️

why does RK write the same characters for every book. it’s like every time i get my hopes up from crumbs in a previous book when i get to their book they’re just a carbon copy of most of her other MCs. i wasn’t delusional or anything but i did get a little excited for this one thinking the characters/plot would be more interesting but (surprising to no one, i’m sure) that was not the case. it was boring and the prose was just weird (almost like purple prose but like a tween wattpad author’s attempt at it) i hope after the final instalment of this series rina takes a step back for a while to work on her crap before pumping out lacklustre clones of her previous work. i’m being overly harsh bc i’ve read a lot worse before but i genuinely do think she has potential and i’ve even really enjoyed some of her work, so it’s just frustrating.

“It's like we belonged together several lives ago and we're just reuniting.”

I was a bit apprehensive going into this book because I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about being inside of Landon’s head, but I ended up enjoying his POV! :)

I thought that he was really sweet with Mia (which I loved) and I enjoyed reading about her gardening hobby as well as her friendship with Brandon! 🥹
