Out of all three books, this one’s easily my favourite—and it’s all because of Rose. She completely stole the show. Fionn’s reluctance to commit felt a little forced at times (like, seriously, what does he have to lose?), but I have to admit... he’s the most romantic of the brothers by far.
The love letters he wrote to Rose? Total heart-melters.

Scythe and Sparrow completely stole the show! 🖤
I loved that this book felt like a prequel to the Ruinous Love trilogy, giving us the chance to see how Fionn and Rose first met. Rose is the definition of a beautiful walking disaster, and Fionn steps right into the role of her fierce protector.
This story has all the tropes I love—touch her and die energy, forced proximity, friends-with-benefits that turns into something deeper, and of course, the unforgettable Barbara!
A fun, swoony, and addictive read! 

You goddam genius.

I cannot express my love for this series or the beautiful ending enough!
Weaver writes with heart, soul and wit for a truly enjoyable reading experience.

That epilogue *chefs kiss* - that’s all I have to say

(insert knowing look and wink)

So so happy to have enjoyed this one after not being a huge fan of L&L!

This was really funny, the romance was sweet, Fionn and Rose are possibly my fave characters from the Ruinous love trilogy!!

Great last instalment in the series, the spice was perfect as well!
