The Rose Bargain

The more I think about it, the less anything in this book makes sense.

I did like the girls and the nuance given to their relationships, trying to work together while not trusting each other. Also the writing was pretty good.

Unfortunately, I didn't like anything else.

(I would've preferred if Bram had been the love interest and she'd been genuinely trying to win the competition, to make the ton regret turning their backs on her family. It wouldn't fix all the plot holes, but it would've been a lot more interesting.)
