This was slow at first and I wasn't really invested but once their relationship got more real, I was all in. Grumpy hero who's only soft for the heroine 🥹 it just never gets old.
The break-in aftermath 😭😭😭 that's when I was sold not only on this book but on Dante!!!! what a man. what a rude bitch but also what a man. truly. have i told you that anthony bridgerton is my favourite bridgerton.
I was soo scared of the third-act drama but Dante's groveling was *chef's kiss* They somehow just got cuter after their drama 🥰
Excited to read book 2 but especially excited for Dominic and his wife's story!
