I hardly ever hate a book
This one had promise at the start but fell off the rails early on. Three boys entered into a pact and carry it on through adulthood, which I thought was a bit silly. Griff, must marry in a big hurry before he heads off to war. He sees Alyssa from across a few ballrooms and decides she's the one he wants. On the day they actually meet, they are at Almack's where they proceed to almost have sex in the ladies retiring room and decide to marry. The chapter when the wedding is being planned grated on my nerves. There was full on rush to get these two having sex. I hate that in any story. I don't know how many chapters the wedding night went because I quit reading. I'm not a prude and am perfectly find with sex scene. I'm not okay with sex scenes with no purpose and very little plot. I'll not read another from this author.
