1🙄⭐️

How could she have fallen in love with him when he was treating her so badly, even after the revelations!! 😳😡
He even took her virginity by force!
And of course his grovel was ridiculous!

His mother was living with him, and all three of them were a lovely atmosphere! 🙄
I am aware this story was written in the ’80s, still, did couples had sex back then while parents were in the next room???

Anyway, it was incredibly predictable and there was no romance/love/connection/chemistry!

Izzie (semi-hiatus) McFussy How frustrating, Dora. Sounds like an anti-romance.

Dora Koutsoukou My dearest Irunia!! I hope you are well, you have been definitely missed!!! ❤️
I can’t say for certain if miss Lamb is not for me, since this was my first read by hers. If this is her pattern, then you are absolutely correct!
I am all in for an alpha arsehole, in this case the alpha was missing. 🤷🏻‍♀️💖

Dora Koutsoukou Tina, all my gr friends who read it, did love it. Undoubtedly expectations and preferences vary.
There wasn’t anything that I liked in this story. I forced myself to finish it, just in case there was a great twist and changed my initial opinion. 🥹💖
