I liked the book enough to finish it..
I liked the steamy scenes/ spice level, and I liked the plot twists. The story was interesting enough for me to keep reading.
BUT:
The possessiveness / stalker tendencies of Alex were SO bad - like if a man ever behaved this way with me I’d be calling the police and I hate how Ana Huang romanticized his behaviour. So much of the plot was cringey and unrealistic. The writing is not going to win any awards either.
