I'm hiding the whole thing under spoilers just be safe. I was really looking forward to this and it fell flat for me.
The first half of this was really slow for me. I was hoping after the second of the second one Tessa would come in ready to kick ass and take names and she just... didn't. Tbh, she was kind of annoying to me for most of it. She did have some growth at the end but it was like pulling teeth to get there.
I guess I missed the memo that this was FMM but I'm not feeling it. Morally grey is arguably one of my favorite colors but I don't think Theon deserves a redemption arc. He's been pretty toxic throughout the series and told Tessa he never lied to her? (Maybe I'm remembering the other books wrong but I definitely feel like he did, often. Or at the very least, a lie by omission) I much prefer her with Luka and liked getting to see them together.
The spice picked up in this one imo. I did enjoy seeing Kat and Axel together.
I don't know. This one felt it like it dumped a lot of information on us that may have been better suited to add to books two and four to get a really solid three book series.
