I DNF this book half way through. I loved the premise of the plot but the execution just didn’t do it for me. A lot of cliches which got too much for me to enjoy.

In my opinion doesn’t compare to the ACOTAR series, I do enjoy a bit of smut in a book but only when it adds to the story. It was overdone and to me took away from the plot.  

But I did enjoy the story overall and will continue the next in the series.
