I loved this book so much! Helena is one of my all time favorite authors and I adored this book. King and Queenie were perfect and I cannot wait for the next book in this series!

I think this maybe one of my favs of the series! Kingston was so great! I just loved everything about him and how he supported Queenie! Love I can't wait to read the continuation with Lavender and Kody with glimpse we saw of their relationship!

This one was ~fine~.

List of thoughts:
- Apparently I have zero interest in the "Good guy who is secretly dirty in bed". I'm not sure what that says about me that I'd rather have the asshole-with-a-heart-of-gold over a #GoodGuy but I don't reeaaalllyyy feel the need to analyse that further.
- I didn't really care about Queenie. I liked her in concept i guess and I like her art therapy thing, but other then that I was kinda meh
- There were a LOT of weird heart-to-hearts and extrapolations in this book
- Cared a lot more about all the side characters and side plots in this one
- HATED all the "My Queen, My King" shit. makes me want to gag
- Sex scenes were weird in this one. it was like they didn't really feel like being descriptive at all and just decided to be like "And orgasms" and you're like "okay i guess"
- I dunno man, it was just fine.

Adorei este livro tanto quanto adorei o segundo!!!! 

Eu não tinha muitas expectativas para este terceiro livro, porque li algumas reviews a dizer que as dinâmicas familiares neste e no próximo livro são um bocado… Complicadas. Posso confirmar que de facto são, MAS não foi de todo um ponto central no livro. Aliás, nesse aspeto até estava à espera de mais drama e confusão, mas nada a ver (e ainda bem)!!!! 

Falando das personagens: adorei os dois AAAAAAA o Kingston é simplesmente adorável, uma green flag com pernas, zero frases problemáticas, logo um querido de primeira. Literalmente a definição de “golden retriever boyfriend”🥹🥹 A Queenie é uma pessoa muito mais complexa, mas eu adorei ler sobre a determinação dela para se tornar mais independente em relação ao pai e começar a enfrentar os problemas de cabeça erguida❤️ 

Um aspeto que adorei sobre o enredo do livro foi a forma como a autora decidiu desenvolver muito bem a dinâmica de casal deles ao longo do livro - não foi um slow burn de todo. O Kingston deixou logo claro que queria sair com a Queenie a sério desde cedo, que queria um namoro sério🥹 E quando o pai da Queenie descobre a verdade sobre o relacionamento deles AHAHAHHAHA riiii tantoooooo nessa cena!!!!!!!! Foi BUÉ boa!!!!!!! E foi bom o livro não ter acabado logo, viu-se bem que a Queenie precisava de muita atenção e comunicação para conseguir que o relacionamento dela e do Kingston funcionasse🫶🏻🫶🏻 ai opa a sério, nesse aspeto, não há mesmo defeitos nenhuns, a autora arrasou 

Agora… A MÃE DELE QUE CHATAAAAAAAAAAAA MDS QUE ÓDIOOOOOOOOO passei muita raiva mds
Ai e também passei tanta raiva com o idiota do ex da Queenie, que vontade de lhe dar um soco socorro😭💀
Como sabem, tem de haver sempre uma reviravolta no último terço livro, mas não se preocupem porque este resolve-se bem - não há cá semanas e meses sem se falarem, e ainda bem né🤠🤠 

Pronto recomendo bastante😘😘
Agora………… Será que eu vou ler o quarto livro??? Egh… Agora não me apetece, e acho que num futuro próximo não vai acontecer não… Talvez numa altura em aue eu esteja no mood para drama ehehhee😌😌

She shoots....and Scores!

Another great book for Helena! I loved this 3rd book in her series! King is a dream! I need some of him in my life. Queenie is a strong heroine & I love her playfulness. I also love that you get a glimpse of the intertwined characters! Can't wait to see if Jake gets his own book!

awwww, I freakin' love it when good guys get their happily ever after.

I enjoyed A Favor for a Favor when I read it last year, and decided to pick this book up while I'm still subscribed to KU. This book has everything I enjoyed from the previous book in the series. Cute and flirty banter, fun moments, and relatable characters. I have always enjoyed Helena Hunting's writing, such a pleasing read!

I love our main characters. King is now part of my list of A+ book boyfriends, who really is an earnest, honest-to-goodness character. I love that he makes an effort in all that he does, be it in his professional or personal life. He's a good egg who deserves everything. I adore Queenie too, who I found relatable and charming. You can't help but root for a person trying her best, but being screwed up for trusting others. Her relationship with her Dad is also adorable.

I'm glad I picked this up!
