I really enjoyed this book! The main characters, Colin and Mercedes, had a great dynamic throughout the story, and I enjoyed their interactions and dialogue.
I also enjoyed that this book had a lot of danger, mystery, and suspense, as well as some truly nasty villains. It made me hang onto every next word to see what would happen next. If you enjoy main character whump, this book is for you!
The side characters were also well-developed, and I felt like they fit very nicely into the story.

I really enjoyed this book! The FMC, Lizzie, and her family are experiencing pretty abject poverty, and she’s doing her best to keep their household afloat. One way she decides to do that is to kidnap the man who got her younger sister pregnant in order to make him marry her sister — except she kidnaps the wrong man!
Our MMC, Lucas, was a really interesting character to read about. I liked his personality and how he and Lizzie interacted as they got to know each other. I also felt like he and Lizzie’s personal flaws and problems felt really real and believable, which made their love story even stronger for me.
Highly recommend if you enjoy banter, found family, and characters learning to grow past the problems that have been holding them back from their happiness.
