I don't think me and short stories/novella mesh very well tbh.
This book felt like a race to the finish and I'm not sure it was in a good way. We meet the villain pretty quickly and within pages Zinnia and her are already kind of in love? I'm all for enemies to lovers but it felt like we went from the first meeting to the first kiss in an instant. I don't think I've seen insta-love happen this fast and that's saying something.
There was good character development of the villain but Zinnia still had the same, or similar, attitude the whole way through. I liked the idea of it but I don't know that it was as well executed as it could have been.
