You want tropes???? This book has TROPES! It has so many tropes and idiotic main characters and the best dude has maybe five pages of time. 
So many annotations, most of them some variation of "ugh" or "🗣 STOP 🗣 RIGHT 🗣 NOW 🗣"
so she's an idiot, there's so much miscommunication, there's only one bed, he hates shifting but he'll do it for her, everyone knows before them ...... and more.
Everyone was weird. Girlie pop spun faster than a tornado with her feelings. No one knew the very obvious things that were happening.
 

Instead of getting in trouble for killing a noble she got married and then was confused when other servants were mean to her

Was okay. Ended on a cliffhanger.
They love each other soooooo much that they'rewilling to die for each other

and do

yet 70% of this book is miscommunication
They've been dating for weeks (WEEKS I TELL YOU) and can't live without each other.
She's 19 and took her 20-something year old murdering man in charge of a bunch of killers to a school dance. A SCHOOL DANCE.
I am alternately tickled and annoyed by every character. 
I'll probably read book three to see how the end of this one is resolved.

and to see if they both manage to get themselves killed AGAIN. and to figure out what happened to her dad cuz he just sort of disappeared AGAIN

I loved it. I enjoyed it much more than the first one, surprisingly. 
Barry is great, so many things made me giggle, and I enjoyed basically everything that happened. 
I love the writing style and I blazed thru the book. Can't wait to see what ridiculous shenanigans Matt and his shovel get up to in the next one.
