So while I did ultimately come around to caring about Adam (MMC), I never really...started to like him? As a Christian, he was super judgmental and then while it’s framed as him figuring out who he was, I think that he really just shifted to finding his value through Sage (FMC) instead of God/his dad? And it’s fine, this is a romance not actually a book about deconstruction, but the struggle with Adam and his religion was SUCH a huge part of his story that I wish he could’ve come to a conclusion that wasn’t just “All that matters is Sage.” That + him realizing he’s into some kinky stuff being viewed as him accepting that he’s “not good” and stuff just felt weird. Still had fun and will keep reading this series though! Lol
