This was easy reading and mentally I wasn't up for anything challenging, which is the only reason I finished it. I found it boring and unsatisfying in terms of plot. There was a long build up to a mystery that was then resolved in about 2 paragraphs. The rest of the book was an argument that you knew would be resolved so was hard to get too invested in. The only reason for someone to choose this would be if you only want smut but there are books out there with smut and plot - you don't have to choose!
