Good beginning, boring middle, and very slappy end. Wasn’t my favourite, but still good.

5.0

Really, really loved this! It wasn't just my recurring insomnia that meant I blitzed through this book in no time. So much happened without it ever feeling rushed or packed in; it really felt like we were getting into the meat of the story (as a vegan I don't love that expression, but here it just works), so much so that it almost made the first book feel like a prequel.

I loved the slow build of Nathan and Gabriel's developing bond and I was so glad

Celia came back into the story. Obviously she did awful things to Nathan, but I do find her a really interesting character to read

. I anticipated the twist but I was still excited for the new dynamic it caused between the main group of characters.

I am now very impatiently waiting for the final book to become available in my library!
