A darn hard book to read. It made me shocked, a year 8 had been reading it in class and I'd said 'is this good? I'm thinking of reading it next'. God bless her this was not safe for work. It was smutty at its finest.

What I didn't expect was that you hated them both one for being in a toxic relationship and the other for being in an incestous one with his step-sister. And then they pull a hard-fast one at you at the end that cause you to fall in love with them.

I laughed, I cried, I gasped, I teared. 

Cons:
Too much incest.

Review without spoilers: I didn't get the hype of the book but for some reason i wanted to keep on reading it. Yeah the title is correct. It's ugly love. I know the author tried to give us the message that love isn't only flowers and sunshines but she failed miserably.

 
Review with spoilers: Tate annoyed me so much. She knew what she was getting herself into. Her whole personality was Miles. I absolutely have no idea what she saw in a guy who fucked her and then sent her home with no aftercare afterwards. Miles treated Tate like shit however i cant trust people who compare Miles with Ryle. Miles was only emotionally abusive. He was giving Tate mixed signals the whole time. There was no chemistry between them. Miles will always love Rachel more. I feel bad for them both. Rachel was wrong but y'all have to realize she lost her son. However i hated how Miles never got closure. Also how could Tate forgive Miles for wishpering his ex's name during sex. Tbh i am disappointed.

Didn’t expect the conflict that miles was dealing with until I got to the chapter. The cover now makes sense. It was hard reading how Tate kept choosing to receive  the bare minimum for the small moments of ecstasy.

This book was HOT, first of all 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Let that be known. 18+!!

I loved this book. I loved how all of the hot guys were pilot, as my husband is a pilot (so I’m massively biased). The sexual and romantic tension is SO AGONIZING, Hoover is so good at creating that. 

Read this if you love the brooding, mysterious, sad boy trope, bad boys, or forbidden love.
