5 Stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I just could not put this book down! It was soooo good, with just the right amount of angst, the feels and also the smutty scenes, the best combination. The ratings and reviews of this book are so high, I was hoping that it would meet those expectations and it did! It is a rockstar romance that contains the childhood lovers to enemies to lovers trope and also close proximity? The chemistry between Lennon and Phoenix was just off the charts. Lennon and Phoenix met when they were in high school but Phoenix did some shit that caused their relationship to fall apart. Fast forward 4 years, Lennon was hired to be his babysitter and she took it up as a chance to take revenge and the rest is history! There's angst and some good grovelling too, and the side characters were also really intriguing. I am super excited and eagerly waiting for the next book, Skylar and Memphis!

you saw me give this four stars?? no you didn’t.
Once upon a time, Phoenix Walker made me believe I was special. Then he destroyed me. I won’t give him the opportunity to do it again.


✨br with my fave Lara✨

i shouldn’t have liked this book. i mean, i really, really, really shouldn’t have liked this book. bcos this was everything i hate in a romance. Phoenix was everything i hate in a hero.

but Ashley Jade’s books are laced with crack, im telling you. like Lara and i had this all planned out— we were gonna read 20% Friday, 40% Saturday then the last 40% on Sunday to space it out since we have a lot of shit to do for classes and work.

yet we read this in twenty-four hours instead

I am so mad at Ashley right now!!!

It's got dual pov, some really good banter, and genuine, complex characters.
The writing itself is well done, they way the author draws the scene out for you, I'm keen to check out some more books by this author.

Wow! I love this book. Great writing. Excellent character development. And a curvy FMC. The book is long and I wish there was more.
