I overall enjoyed this a little more than Phantasma. I liked the setting and the characters and emotionally I connected with the characters more. At least in terms of what they were going through. The games and the effect of them on them individually. To me though the romance was not strong enough or believable enough to keep me interested if I hadn’t been so invested in the plot or the connections and working out what the secrets were etc. The sex scenes were enjoyable to read though and even though the “love” connection wasn’t believable to me, the “attraction” connection was very much so. I also vibed with the growing connections between the family and Vivi. Honestly, I wouldn’t have minded an extra 50-100 pages to add more time with the characters getting to know them and maybe having more pov’s. The wanting more is what took it from a 4 rating to the full 5.
