I have a million thoughts after reading this book and I don’t know where to start. I’ll start off by saying that the story was engaging and easy to follow along with so I’d consider reading another book by this author.
With that being said… wtf?? This book was a roller coaster and unfortunately for me, not a good one. I simply did not like either of the main characters. The way they were introduced was sooo creepy and his comment about her looking no older than 16 but still wanting to have sex with her right then in a dark alley was insane. And then her comment about actually being 14 when she’s actually 19 and he was still really into it no matter what??? Weird. It just put a bad taste in my mouth but I know that age gap relationships aren’t uncommon in romance books. Looking back that behavior seems so out of character for Rowdy and if he was introduced differently I might have ended up liking him more. But I couldn’t get over the first impression. Also the way they’d refer to Atlas as a “teen” was so odd.
I also feel like his back story didn’t make that much sense compared to his personality. Yeah he had a rough past with his parents but they seemed to be relatively supportive of him. So why was he so cold and hard???
Now- time for that plot twist… what the actual fuck? I’m still baffled that they had a whole in depth spicy scene (including a golden shower

I fell in love with BB when Lilac came out and loved the connections and the raw feelings with the characters. In the Gray was no exception. Rowdy and Atlas were a wild ride couple.
Was there POC representation? heck yeah.
Was there an possessive, unhinged, alpha male? oh yes buddy.
Was there a strong woman that knows what she wants and how to take care of herself? you betcha.
I love the scene where there's an incident at the motel she's staying at and he tells her to stay in the car but she ignores it and brings "back up". I could imagine the look of confusion and awe in his eyes, like that's my girl.
Also the scene with the water bottle. IYKYK
The spice is just BB's addictive level. She knows how to write it and give it to you and saying thank you in the end.
This book took me through the loops and I couldn't put it down and a lot of you, you won't either.
Also, pssstttt, BB can you write Demi and Roc and baby girl Halo please!! Like even if it's a novella.
