Publisher's summary

When River Caliban, my sworn enemy, called out my name, I shouldn’t have turned around.

I should have run the other way when he flashed that sinful smile of his, but instead, I walked toward him. I went against all reason, against all warning, and attended the gala of the year. His gala.

The moment I step foot inside I know I’m in trouble, but I find that I can’t turn away. I should leave. I shouldn’t give into temptation. Not with him, not after everything his family has put mine through, but there’s something about River that magnetizes me, reels me in, and when he asks for the impossible, I can’t seem to refuse.

"It is hands down one the most refreshing, magical, intense, twisty reads of 2020!" (Angie, Angie's Dreamy Reads)

Superficial fluff

Superficial depth into detail, story and character development. “Spicy “ scenes seemed thrown in just to have some. I give it a Meh .

You have to be in the mood for the story

It’s not Clair’s typical work and she’s telling a story but it takes forever. I really wasn’t invested which is sad bc I like Clair’s work. I slogged thru 80% of the book at 2x speed hoping the story would pick up and it just didn’t. Ended up DNFing at 85%
