I truly should have DNF'd this book but I was so far through I decided to power through. If you want a boss/assistant relationship this book is not for you. If you want fake dating or a secret relationship this book is not for you. If you want a slow burn this book is not for you, because in order for it to be a slow burn something needs to be burning!!! I enjoyed the first quarter of the book because the premise is interesting and it felt like something was building, and then the pacing totally fell apart. The story stuttered with so many different sub plots and unreasonable obstacles for the protagonists. As others have said the side characters were more compelling than the protagonists.
The sex scene at the very end was SO out of place
The writing wasn't overly awful and there was a good idea somewhere, thus the 2.5 stars.
