2.5

Eh. 2.5 I listened to this on audio. An interesting re-imagined story of Hook, a book (like the series) where the villain gets the girl. Not really fond of either of the MCs, so maybe that's why I thought it was just an ok read/listen. Spicy.

This book had me hooked from the beginning. I kind of predicted what was going to happen, or who some people turned out to be, but I was still surprised by the turn of events and how things played out. 

Book was pretty spicy, I would rate it 🌶🌶🌶. Although could have done without the use of the word c**t used as a descriptive word more than once.

Absolutely loved this, and cannot wait to get to the rest of the series. Definitely not for anyone who doesn't enjoy darker themes in books, but perfect for those who do!
