DNF at 20%. I was really excited for this book because I adore estranged childhood friends to lovers, and the premise sounded fun, but the execution on this one was boring for me. Phoebe seemed like she was martyring herself, and her sisters were more interesting to me as a reader. Will was also a bit dull and complacent �� “oh the former Duke was a conservative, so I guess I should be too, even if I don’t really agree with it.�� I can tell that Phoebe will challenge this for him, and I don’t think it’s her responsibility to turn him into a decent person. I didn’t want to stick around and watch him flounder until he grew a backbone.

Thank you to Forever and NetGalley for the ARC!
