I’ve never felt so much frustration about a FMC, then this one!
Like no backbone at all and when she could like stand up for herself. She still kind of didn’t do that.
The thing that like really got me through this, and the reason why I still gave it four stars is because the story was crazy and my frustration kept building because of her self-esteem. I just kept waiting for the shooter drop for her to finally stick up for herself.
Don’t give me wrong she did that somewhat, but I fully think that she could’ve gone about it harder than what happened and I didn’t get that satisfaction at the end of the book, but it was a satisfaction that I enjoyed it, really!!!

Wow, the only thing I can really say about this, that is negative is that I wish it was longer.
Also a little bit more character development for the heroine, but the hero of the story crew so much and had so much depth that I loved him and his brother, and I really want to read about his brother’s romance!

I definitely need to get this in a physical.
I think the only reason it wasn’t a full five star read for me is because there wasn’t enough angst when it came to the cheating for me.
Other than that, it was heartening, and there were some very gut wrenching experiences during the plot, and I really did like most of the justice that was served.
