12/23 reread- upping to 3.75 stars!
This was a fun read! I will definitely be looking out for the Bareknuckle Bastards books in the future. Maybe Ewan will get a redemption arc. This story was good, I enjoyed the interaction between Devil and Felicity. Though the plot did seem to be a bit rushed to me, making the relationship between Felicty and Ewan seem a bit rushed and not the least bit manipulative- as it was supposed to be. I would have liked to have seen more of the supposed manipulation of brother to brother than what was described in the book- which mainly focused on Felicity and Devil talking, kissing, and having sex with one another (not to say that I minded). I loved to read about how Devil was a pure simp for Felicity and wow I wish a man would be that way about me.
