Okay look... this book is not objectively good, but the audiobook was so that has probably skewed my opinion somewhat lol 

I binged this in 24 hours. And I want to read the next one asap. 

The professor is hot AF and it seems I have a thing for vampire professors at the moment 😂

I will say that the relationships did seem extremely underdeveloped. And their personalities were quite shallow. We realistically know absolutely nothing about these men apart from two of them were absolutely horrible until they weren't and one was lovely but only compared to them. 

And then we have the professor who is somehow the one we know the most about and yet we still know so little because he's all mysterious and old lol 

Also there's so much smut in this book that I started skipping it. It really didnt add literally anything to the story and a girl can only care so much 😂

Overall, this was a fun, super smutty read that wasn't super deep. I would suggest you read it only if you're into these things! I will be continuing however I'm not sure if I'll get all the way through the series or not. Depends on the next book I suppose

PS there was a period scene and just.. I didn't need that lol the idea of a tampon frozen as a lollipop was unnecessary, to say the least 🤢
