This book is definitely character driven. I read this last year, but the story is still somewhat in my memory. Any of my reviews should be taken with a grain of salt as I am not that analytical when it comes to any books. Overall, I did enjoy it. The spicy scenes were really intense so if that's not your thing I do not recommend this book! It was nice to see the characters progress and it got me wanting to read the other stories! I have the two other books in the series and have yet to start the newest one that came out this summer.
