I might change my rating, becuse i dont know what to give it just yet. I liked it alot. There were something about it that made it diffrent then all the other romance books I have read. One thing that i did love about it was the mystery plot alone with it. However there were I felt as tho it was forgot from time to time, like it would foucus on Alex and Ava and the it was back to the mystery part and then all of a sudden you could just conect the dotts. I jsut felt like it could be done a bit more with the book. 
There were times were Alex went a bit to far, or was (for me personaly) a bit uncomfortable.  Looking away form that (ignoring all the read flags😅) Alex and Ava were cute togehter and i did like them. I will say that the spicy level shocked me. I knew it was like spicy spicy, but not like that. 
 There were something about the ending that was like meh.  It kinda annyed me that he literaly pushed her way and then a few montes later he dropped everything and tracked her down. He has a bit of stocker vibes that I'm not super comferable with. Also he just have wayyyyy to much power, which is both dangerous and weird, it becomse a bit much. 

In not say that is bad, becuse it is well writen and everything, is just some stuff that i really rember and that I'm stuck with after reading it. Becuse there is a lot that i liked about the book, but i just can rember spesific thing. I did make me cry, which means that it is a good book. 

What I'm kinda excited about is how Josh and ALex frinedship will be in the next books.

This book was... well it was mid for me. The beginning was very interesting, I loved getting to know the characters and finding out backstories and such but once I got about halfway through, it just didn't have that spark for me anymore. Really the only thing I was mildly interested in was the sex 💀 and by the time I got about 2/3 into the book, even that kind of became boring in a way. Overall, just very mid for me. I am interested in reading the other books just because I do love the whole cast, I honestly just don't like Alex 🤭

Good steamy book. Interesting plot, good character development. Some of Alex’s jealous moments were a bit much but nothing for me to be like ew wtf. He’s a fictional man, of course I ignore the red flags. 😂🙌🏻 Looking forward to reading the rest of the books in the series!

I did really like this book, the banter and the dynamics between friends was amaxing, but felt like she took him back too quickly.
I adore Josh as well.
