I almost did not finish this one, as I felt the plot was painfully slow at times. Also, for most of the book, I could not for the life of me enjoy Pestilence as a character. 

I know this is enemies to lovers but it never really felt that way to me. I couldn’t figure out a way that Sarah could possibly fall in love with Pestilence after he DRAGGED HER BEHIND HIS HORSE?!! Like, that’s a bit much for me. Also, I’m not a huge fan of female leads who *aren’t like other girls*. 

Sarah’s character really just did not vibe with me overall. I’ve read this whole series now and this is by far my least favorite. I do think they get better as you go on though.
