This is the first book I’ve read by this author. The description sounded interesting but I had no other expectations. Unfortunately I didn’t enjoy it much for a number of reasons.

I found some parts of the book too descriptive of the characters feelings or justifications of their behaviour. It got to the extent of being annoying and slowing the story down.

Some situations seemed unrealistic or improvable which obviously takes credibility away from the story. This is quite noticeable in some dialogues that are not colloquial and use a register too formal and more adequate for a written text.

I understand that the author has a background in finance but the book has a lot of financial technical descriptions that in my opinion don’t add much to the plot. The ending is rather abrupt and is more focused on the financial issues rather than the romance.

Overall an OK read but I wouldn’t read it again. 3 stars.

I received this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
