I originally read this book on wattpad years ago. I went to reread and saw it was published! So I purchased the Kindle version and devoured it.
I will say that Ellie was frustrating at times. Her determination to escape was admirable but also seemed to defy all logic and became increasingly annoying.
On the other hand, Rahz’s inability to understand Ellie’s attempts to explain consent and her fear of having children were equally frustrating.
I’m the end it was all chalked up to a difference in cultures. Honestly, I was just glad when they finally both got together!
Overall, the steamy scenes are actually great and there is enough conflict (I wouldn’t necessarily call it a plot) to keep it interesting!
I hope the author continues this series!
