I really enjoyed this book. It was intense and beautiful, the dynamic that Eden and Trent had. The prose was a little redundant/superfluous at times but you can tell Jackson was really trying to paint a picture for the reader. The plot twist I kinda guessed but was still not prepared for his everything unfolded and was connected. Happy the characters got their happy ending and excited to read the other brother’s stories next.

3.0

I only gave this a 3 because I struggled with the writing style and how it bounced between 1st and 3rd person POV. I love the characters, loved the story but reading it was hard because the wording was so off.
