The first book in this series was much better. This was a difficult book. Tristan was such an awful hero for a romance novel, full of sexism and belittling Lucy, until the very end of the book, when he was suddenly the perfect book boyfriend. Lucy was a trope of a dumb heroine, knowing that getting involved with a man she disliked so much was a bad idea and doing it anyway. But because HEA, the massive waving red flags were miraculously cleared away. I think if Tristan had been just a rake an not a sexist asshole, I might have enjoyed this as much as others seem to. I couldn’t look past it.
