Queen B’s Decree: I got hooked on White Rose Painted Red pretty quickly.
At first, I thought Aurora was gonna be one of those FMCs that doesn’t question anything and just goes with the flow. The kind that just lets things happen to them. I mean, girly doesn’t question a $15,000/month salary for a cleaning job with an NDA? I guess if I was super desperate, I’d ignore the red flags too. But thankfully, her character gets super fleshed out and she became one of my favorites.
Although she can’t beat Seven. What a crazy golden retriever of a man. Just on the wrong side of insane, but the good side of loyal and adorable.
The plot was wild and crazy and I couldn’t stop reading. I had to know what was gonna happen! Throw in the chemistry and steam and this was the perfect example of the dark why choose genre. Like get me a glass of water please, I need it.
The cliffhanger and issue at the end broke me and I need more. Please and thank you 🙏
