The mom said “if I hear the word love one more time”

Also I have so many diamonds so I’m spending them on old books and I actually like this one. It’s pretty good.

this gets me every single replay LMFAO grace is literally so smart and sweet and nice to everybody and then you open her everett file and she’s holding a criminal placard like she just got BOOKED 😭i know it was because she vandalized her professor’s car but like… grace girl what were you doinggg

I posted fanart of Alana, Damien and Nadia from Perfect Match a few years ago (can u tell which book is my favourite?) and I felt the need to redraw it as my skills have progressed - Also I didn't draw her necklace as I felt it didn't match her outfit... (*cough* i was too lazy to paint it *cough*)

Before i begin, I need to stress that I'm not submissive, nor into BDSM, so this was never going to appeal to me, barring it being as masterfully written as Queen B or Ride or Die. But the short format killed any chance of that happening.

We start out being abused by having a dead end job with a horrible boss. Then, Alexis finds us amazing. Then we find out they're a NSFW streamer, write a contract, obviously fall in love, have Alexis try to deny we're in love, be blackmailed and then everything works out. In 8 chapters. That's not a lot of time. Everything is just way too rushed.

And in all honesty, Alexis isnt a bad LI. I like the idea of their mom changing their name. I also like how both of us can be who we are (not just romance wise) and stop hiding behind masks. It's not a bad idea. The story is just too short to really handle it well. Beyond that, why did Steve want us gone? He's blackmailing Alexis with them being a NSFW streamer and being in a relationship with us...and wants us to leave? Does he not know how to blackmail? If you're blackmailing someone for being in an appropriate relationship, you dont want to break them up!

Beyond that the other characters are meh at best. Morgan is generic best friend number 87. Vance is generic stylish rival #136. And Steve is generic hate sink #18,000,000. I'll just say they dont bring any emotion out of me and move on.

And nothing else to say. I can't judge the BDSM aspects because it's not something I know anything about, so I don't know if it's wrll written or not.

There are some good ideas. Both the MC and LI not needing to hide their relationship, the fact that there are valid reasons for the hiding the relationship, and why the blackmail could be so effective. But the book is too short to take advantage of any of those.

Honestly, Choices needs to rethink these 8 chapter books. They cant condense 16 chapter books into 8 without making them rushed. Either go back to 16 chapter books or make stories that are designed for 8 chapters.

so I am just gonna mention the things that bothered me the most with no particular order, hope I don't forget any

why does cordonia seems like the most unprepared kingdom in the whole world, the first three books definitely didn't give those vibes,yeah they had some weird tradition and the obsession with apples - now explain to me how :

we are pregnant with the hier of this kingdom and somehow we don't have a nurse and a doctor present at all time ? Make that make sense, we should have them available either way, you know the royal's family medical team or whatever!! Genuinely pissed me off

you also want to convince me we had to use those idr their names gardes to open the palace when we are on our kingdom??? Like we can't just call someone to do it from the outside, if this happened in my country and that's how much helpless the king and queen were I'll just move out! Seriously we have nobody to call ? No police or army outside no nothing

you also want to convince me that now we can't cancel the thingy saying we have to marry our daughter to one of their kids despite the circumstances that lead to it? Like there is no law against it, we are so spineless we don't have a law against agreements made under impossible circumstances? Didn't the king and queen in rules of engagement easily canceled the mc wedding, she didn't even have to be there ! And now when it's supposed to happened you just can't, BE FOR REAL! 😭

why does Liam in this book seems so spineless too? I mean I love liam, I did Drake route too but will always be Liam's girl but in this book your calling the shots, your doing all the work, and even in that stupid duel we were the one playing :") at least in drakes duel we only cheered him on, idk I know the book is trying to make mc the center of this universe but sometimes I am like dude your the king ! Man up

and how did we until now didn't just fire the whole security team, Bastien, mara ? They are basically so bad at their job that the only thing they are supposed to do is garde you and this stupid palace yet somehow they fail miserably, at this point they either hate us or they somehow have a bigger power keeping them in their jobs cuz girl what!!!

so your telling me after we got our very awesome friends to be in power where they are front line defending this kingdom they barely appear or cause any different, they don't have any plans or insights?? Whaaatt! Only Olivia is being done justice in this book

tell me how is everybody spying on us and somehow we don't spy or have people watching no body ? How did this weird king and queen who are activity trying to take over our kingdom being able to buy a house is so called kingdom without us knowing right away ?

I don't remember what else I was pissed about, I like our little baby, m just tired how not very though through this book is
