Unfortunately, this one didn’t work for me. Nearly 500 pages of buildup, and yet nothing really happened. The premise was intriguing, but the execution just dragged. The romance felt flat, and the female lead’s motivation was almost nonexistent.
Around the final quarter, I finally got a spark of chemistry between the characters, but it wasn’t enough. The ending felt absurd and senseless—and that cliffhanger? Instead of making me want more, it made me put the book down for good.
Found out too late it originated on Wattpad… and that explained a lot.
⭐ 1 star—only because I can’t give less.

This book written about a girl who has never had sex was obviously written by someone who has also never had sex. These scenes were AWFUL.

Amazing story
The slow burn in this story is insane and kept me on the edge of my seat. The FMC made me mad in all the right ways by making all the wrong choices. Yet, with each choice she got to grow and learn which was a plus. I can't wait to see what happens next in the series.
