Second book
Dark romance
Contemporary romance
Dark rom-com
3 POV
Marriage of convenience
This book was not as gripping as the first. The steaks weren’t super high and it felt like a place holder for the final book. I feel like the character arcs were decent, the story was fine….
The bad guy wasn’t super exciting. There was very little build up, with the 3 chapters in his PoV. I almost wish there had been more… it would have upped the stakes.
But it almost felt like the final chapters were out of order. I didn’t enjoy the whiplash of jumping around in the timeline.
It was a meh for me.
