✨Linna✨ Venturi's Reviews > Prince and Pawn

✘ great start, mediocre middle, boring ending
✘ shoddy editing - needed at least 1-2 more rounds before it would have been ready for being released.
✘ marketed as hurt/comfort when it is S&M
✘ 3rd in a very fluffy & light hearted series - suddenly including kink (not that I have anything AGAINST reading stuff like that, but I just really didn't want/ expect it in this series)
✘ Audric was boring - sorry!
✘ Corin wasn't much better, although at least he developed some personality by the end
✘ practically no emotional built up for the two, which made their romance feel shallow and un-earned. they drop the L-word after sleeping with each other twice and talking to each other on two separate occasions. I can suspend a lot of disbelief, but not this much.
✘ No swoon - worthy moments (in my humble opinion). Audric's inner monologue was practically 100% sex driven and how much he wants to hurt Corin - but it was never explained why
✘ best parts of the book were the supporting characters and the little cameo's we got from Jules, Whisper, Bell, Rakos and Lucian
