I'm not giving this book a 5 stars because there were some things that annoyed the hell outta me (for instances, almost the names of the characters suck, the worst being the MC... I'll never get over it), but the story is great, the pace is perfect, the twists surprised me and I LOVED how the author depicted Poppy's sexual awakening and first experience. Also that there was a strong focus on HER pleasure, which is refreshing. I loved seeing Poppy feeling more and more empowered throughout the book, she is a badass and I'm here for it.
