I really wanted to love this book. Saw it on TT and the spoilers made it seem like it was going to be a lot spicier. Started off strong and interesting with its rendition of beauty of the beast. In terms of actual spice, assomeone else put it, it was a tease almost the whole time. It also got frustrating when all the “clues” were super clear and yet the characters still were clueless. Interesting cliffhanger, hopefully the second book will have more spice.
