I really enjoyed this prequel! It's fast paced, fun, and generally well written. The only thing I'd remark on is that it's pretty short, so it feels a bit compressed and not super deep. I also think it could have benefited by one more round of editing/rewriting since some sentences are not grammatically correct.. it threw me off at times. But it's not the end of the world.

I really want to read more of this series now, but I have so many other books on my tbr and I can't really buy more books for a while....

This is an excellent and very much needed prequel to the story of Lady Vice. It helps explain who she is in the present and where she came from. Hopefully her father and uncle “get taken care of” in later books, because they’re both vile fuckwits. I can’t say that I was sad to see Evered go; nope, not even a little bit. Whiny git. I’m really enjoying this series!

Side note: I still twitch at the way the clit gets called “her pearl” in this series. WhY.
