The book started off fairly strong with the death of Francesca’s husband, but for me the effect was ruined by Michael, who came off as predatory at times and it was a struggle for me to get through some of their scenes. I could not get invested in the couple in the slightest, and this was the Bridgerton book that made me feel the most ill while reading.
Graphic: Sexual assault
Michael's actions seemed predatory and at times he essentially forced Francesca into sex with him
