I'll say that I started reading this series because of the Fated Mates podcast. Sarah and Jen are wonderful and hilarious, they talk about all the books with such love that I simply couldn't resist picking this one up.
Now, I gave this one 3 stars. Enjoyment - 4.5, actual contents of the book - 1.5.
I didn't like 1st half of the book because as heroine says herself it's Stockholm syndrome. He lies to her, he hates her kind and acts like a douche, but then he saves her and she does 180 from the person she was. I didn't liked how her character was explored (not). In a couple of pages she changes so much it feels unrealistic.
But sexy times were steamy and hot, humor - wow! - I don't remember a book where pop culture references made me laugh and not cringe, here they were actually funny and in place.
Overall, I'd say listen to the podcast, then read the book. You'll probably don't hate it.
TBH if I read this on my own I would've dnf'd it at 10 or so percent.
