Okay so I had high hopes for this book, and although I enjoyed it, it felt like something was missing for most part of the story 😅
Like I liked the writing style, and I loved the rep, I loved the two MC's own individual character arcs. But the two of them together? The romance? The chemistry? I wasn't that convinced 😠I mean up until 60-70%, I didn't love them as much as I imagined, and their chemistry was lacking (altho I did swoon in a few lines/scenes back there). I guess I wanted more?
Still a solid read tho. I definitely stayed for the character arcs and back stories 😆
