DNF at 59%. I just got bored, honestly. The guys absolutely were completely interchangeable and indistinguishable from one another. One was an artist… maybe? (They were such nonentities that I pretty sure that one of them still hasn’t banged her at this point.) Also there was a lot of rich people problems I couldn’t be bothered with on their parts. Ocean had potential as a plus-size FMC… if that wasn’t her entire personality. That and downplaying the actual abuse she went through even while she’s actively traumatized about it. But even that just wasn’t that interesting. Her aunt and uncle are basically mustache-twirling cartoon villains with no motivation that we can see.
Update: I skimmed the ending. The corporate espionage plot was absolute gobbledygook that I still don’t care about. And the stupid trust until she’s 35 didn’t set off any alarms for anyone other than her brilliant alpha husbands? I call shenanigans. It was almost nice to see her aunt get her comeuppance, but it was ruined by how cartoony it was. “I’m melting, MELTING!” Now I’m just mad at this book and dropping it to one-star. Disappointing cause I really did like the other Sinclair book I read.
