Okay, so, you know those bizarre Kindle unlimited ads you get pushed on Instagram and Facebook? Well, this one got pushed to me and I was like, 'What in the world... WHY would ANYONE write this?!'
My morbid curiosity got the better of me and I downloaded it just to see how hot of a mess it was. MY FRIENDS. The mess was HOT.
The book was nonsensical, several of the historical aspects made me scoff because they were so inaccurate, the writing style did not mesh with me, the characters were either inconsistent and confusing or completely stereotypical.
And at the end, I'm not quite sure what the author was trying to accomplish. I'm a sucker for a romance novel, but this didn't quite fit the bill for a romance novel? It could have been a moral message, but I'm not sure what the message was?
Ah well, it was entertaining conversation fodder as I sent a chapter-by-chapter summary to my friend 😂
