I did not like this book, but I persevered through the entirety of it because a friend recommended the series and live-texting her was fun. I did go into this thinking it was fantasy, perhaps that’s why I disliked it so much? No, it was the characters. I simply couldn’t get behind the Cecelia; she lacked common sense to the point where I found myself shaking the book and questioning her decisions out loud. The MMCs? Not much better. They’re the hottest, most secretive dudes on earth—and they share a mysterious raven tattoo. I wanted to rid Cecelia (and myself) of them almost immediately.
Anyway, the plot. Cecelia has to work for her estranged multi-millionaire father in Middle of Nowhere, USA for a year to get her hefty inheritance that she’ll use to take care of her fragile mother. While there, she falls in love (in like five seconds) and the rest is “a twisted fairytale”.
