Ugh, awful female character

It’s a nice story at the start. But then the female character gets more and more awful 😞. All the way to the end of the book she was just conniving and selfish, she steals, and kept leaving people who were nice to her in the night ungratefully. The end is unrealistic and I don’t know any one man who would have just let it slid the way the author wants the reader to believe. The HEA is forced in this book in the last couple of sentences. That made the couple turn out to be the toxic romance kind of relationship. And what happens to the rest of the people in the book affected by her shenanigans as the couple walks happily to the sunset?
I won’t waste my time with book 2. I know it had more unrealistic HEA if the other brother will be off to find the stupid artifact 😏

Heartwarming story

Quite a long but very touching story. Lots of humor, passion and interesting twists. Thanks to the author and the wonderful narrator!

Selfish female main character!!

It started out good, but took a turn for the worst in the last third of the book. The female main character (fmc) has got to be the most selfish one I’ve encountered in a very long time and I have read close to 2k books. She just made one bad decision after another and no consequences. She seriously believed in the poor decisions that she made and felt that she was justified. Smh. The story had so much promise in the beginning. I won’t read anything else from this author because this book frustrated me so much. It felt like an entitled millennial was writing it.

Hated the story

At first it is a funny, romantic tale. But half way it takes an awful turn. I found it despicable, the FMC is/ was despicable. Since she never pays for her sins and is completely forgiven I could not recommend the tale. she is truly, truly truly the worse sort of person. of she were real, I would spit on her!

sorry because the narration is incredibly good!
