Well... that was something.
Disclaimers:
1) If CNC (look it up yourself peeps) is not your thing, you might want to skip this book.
2) Its a spicy romance book as the main plot so if its not your think skip this one too.
3) Spicy level : 4/5🌶 (gurlie was shookth)
For me, overall it was okay. One of the reasons why I was excited to dive into the whole series is because it has relations to the Dark Olympus series. YEEEEEEP. So yeah, I'm a sucker for interconnecting worlds and its a disney villain retelling so there's that.
This one is on Jaafar and Jasmine and I for one kinda liked how Ali was potrayed in here. We're also introduced to a number of characters that seemed familiar so there's that.
Romance-wise, I wanted a more depth in Jasmine's and Jafar's character per ssay, but since the main point of this book is the spice so ..... yeah.
The ending was a bit off for me so overall not a bad read. Excited to read about Hercules in the next book cause.... I wanna know what happened to him - (related to Wicked Beauty - book 3 Dark Olympus series)
This book is not for everyone but hey this genre exists for a reason. So pick your reads accordingly :)
