I really liked this book, even though I have heard quite different things about it on tiktok. Some was really stoked about it while others cursed it to hell and back. 
I can maybe see why it isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. It is a bit slow at some parts and the development isn’t that fast.
The end of the book it also seemed like it we just at the beginning again. I know she points it out herself, but it just seems like everything she went through. All the heartbreak and the hard work was meaningless. Now she just has a brother she don’t recognize, and new husband is now the one that is gone. The one that she now feel is her everything, instead of her brother. 
I know there had to be a twist and something that we hate is happening, for the plot yk. 
But either Roman is going to end up just like her brother or worse. The possibility for better is really slim. 
I why the heck couldn’t they have taken Roman with them?!! 
“It took all the strength in me to desert from the bad guy” yeah right. One more person wasn’t that big of a deal. But then maybe Roman would definitely die because they didn’t have any medicine to help him. 
This is why I like the book even though it makes me wants to pull my hair out of frustration.

I really like this book even though it doesn’t develop that fast in some parts, but the sweet little things that help make the book lighthearted at times where there is also so much darkenss. 
The humor I love and the banter!! Love it! If you don’t like enemies or more like rivals to lovers then this book is definitely not for you but if it is. You would probably love this very much. It is slow burn, with so many feelings and it is so well written.
