Porn with a slightly messy plot. A little too insta-love for me.

I finished this and immediately went to read the blurbs of the other books in the series but none of them look like they're about Sofie so that's a bummer. I was hoping to get her story taking place maybe 10 or so years later.

I'm also thinking this book was self-published, and if there was an editor, they too didn't know the correct usage of lay/lie. Just a heads up.

It took me 3 weeks to get through 30% of this book. I came so close to abandoning it multiple times. Sat down and forced myself to power through and ended up reading for 7 hours until I finished. Honestly, the world building has some major weak points. There are so many holes for me that aren't explained or just flat out don't make sense. I kept telling myself if I just kept reading, everything would be revealed, yet I think it's really just stuck at massive suspension of belief. Having a second POV might have really helped fuel the intrigue and build out characters. I will say that when the romance hits, it packs a pretty good punch, but you have to wait a looong time for it.

Started off a little rough when it came to the plot, but Grace Draven quickly reminded me why I love this world.

Started this over a year ago, got almost a quarter of the way in, and then lost interest so I never picked it back up.
