The Pact

3.5 stars

This is a friends to lovers romance and man the angst in the first half of this book. I actually preferred the first half of this book to the last half. In the first half we get the will they want they back and forth and I was loving that despite really wanting them to finally get together. The last half is where they finally get together and the way they went about it really didn't sit right with me and I really pretty much hated every single side character. I know you are meant to cheer for the hero and heroine but I hate when the authors make every other boyfriend/girlfriend horrible. Like why? I loved the characters together and I enjoyed reading this but it didn't fully work for me. 

I'm surprised by the DNFs here, but I listened to the audiobook, so maybe that made a difference here. There were times I didn't love the H and h, but it felt like how I thought the characters would act in real life, if that makes any sense. Friends to lovers is my favorite trope, so I enjoyed the book.
