Well this was a tricky one.
Mayhem is the first book I’ve read from this author. I enjoyed the story albeit frustrating and the constant ire I felt towards Kate. Seriously, ughhh she’s so manipulative I wouldn’t want to know what she’d be like as an enemy!
Don’t get me wrong, and I loved the chemistry between the main protagonists, but sex when one of the characters is 16 and one is nearly 18 it felt like crossing an invisible line. I got why it happened when it did, but it made want to stop reading but the pull of wanting to know what happens next won me over. I must say, I enjoyed Emilia and Carter’s pranks and banter. They developed an easy friendship under the fake hate. There was some sweet moments where my heart melted and yes I really had the urge to cry a few times... Carter is swoon-y sweet and I loved his over protective “big brother” role.
I’m curious to see where this story goes next as I know they’re older in the next book.
3.5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Loved it
Loved reading this book, it was one of those ones that I started and finished within the same reading, it was well written and had You wanting more. I loved Carter & Emilia together and so wish she could've seen past her fears. I'm hoping they will get a HEA in book 2

slow-paced
Not what was expected
Come to find out this a 3 part series that goes from High School in the first book then to college and then adulthood. Keep in mind this book is the beginning at high school and ends when carter comes home from his first semester at college.
Why I say not what I expected is because this was a Facebook suggested book that it made it sound like it started at college.
Going to find book 2

Any book by Catharina is an automatic purchase for me, and yet again, she did not disappoint. Loved this series, as I knew I would!
Just Meh
Giving me very much wattpad vibes, miscommunication trope is strong with this one and is just overall not my vibe.
I’ll read the others in the trilogy but it really isn’t my fave.

Annoying characters, inconsistencies "in progress" The characters would think something and then a little later it's as though that hadn't happened and any progress or character development took a step back.
