First Line:
My mother used to have me pick my own switches
Summary:
Yasmin Karam has always devoted her life to being a good daughter. When her father, one of the richest men in the world, falls ill, she is faced with a choice.
Follow her heart, or please her father.
In an attempt to do both, she strikes a deal with Julian Faraci, her father’s right hand man with an agenda of his own.
My Review: NO SPOILERS
My heart is full and my crops are thriving!
At first I was a little skeptical of the pace this book was going, but honestly it was perfect! I’ve read a few books from the Never After series and they never disappoint!
I really enjoyed how Emily modernizes these fairytales, but this one was especially fun to read ❤️ Julian is a great morally gray character, and I love the way Yasmin has a good mix of strength and vulnerability. Also a nice plot twist with Adrian! I wish this was addressed a little more with what happened between Yasmin and Adrian.

My Favorite Quote(s):
The words slice through my clothes and prick against my chest.
He snaps his head to the side, chomping his teeth like he’s trying to bite my hand, and I squeal, pulling it back and slamming it to my chest.
I point to her now. “Stay.” “Woof,” she barks. Amusement trickles through my frayed nerves, and I smirk. “Cute.”
“I want to reach into your chest and hold your heart in my hands, making sure it only beats for me,” I rasp. “But I don’t want your firsts, Yasmin. I want your forever.”
