A bit sad I'm giving this one three stars.
I found the plot (generally) a bit boring as well as the mystery of the murder. It was just an interesting idea but it didn't work for me.

Taylor and Myles were great as a couple but the insta love trope doesn't make sense to me. They spent only five days together but it felt like months were passing as we dive deeper into the book. 

Loved Taylor with all my heart ❤️ 
I relate to her a lot and seeing her moulding herself into this brave, knows what she wants woman was amazing to read. Her, not pitting herself against Myles's decisions and just enjoying the moment was probably the highlight. Making him grovel later.

I have a strong hate-love relationship with the bounty hunter tho. I disliked him most of the book but in the last chapters, we meet a softer less aggressive character. Throughout the book, I felt annoyed with him. His need to over-protect Taylor is almost parental and diminishes her to a child-like figure. It was not for me.
