It was just okay. Seemed all over the place, and the King character in this book seemed different from the King character i read in the Hans and Nero books. He felt so young and carefree in those 2 books i was shocked when i found out he was actually 45 😅 he was so serious here (not bad, but he felt like a totally diff character).

Anyway, i liked the supporting characters! They were fun. Introduction of other characters were kinda sloppy and out of the blue though, like some random FBI agent? And a guy named… Tye? The random bad guy etc, and the 3rd act conflict was out of the blue :/ like boom, new random character was added without much relation to the couple.
it would’ve been more understandable if that bad guy was set free by that mayors or mayors brother, but nope hahaha
There were some potholes as well
like how the FMC saw some guy stalking outside their home, and realizing he didnt have a flashlight unlike the other guards… and didnt mention that suspicious guy at all?


Too much smexy scenes though so i skimmed those. Overall not really as dark as othe rbooks i see online since it focuses on the relationship. 

Cringey dialogue was bearable 😂
