This book will show how hard is to break the circle of abuse. And how sometimes things can get complicated. And how grief is so hard. How can completely change the way we look at the world. And how two broken people either will collect them fully together or will completely destroyed more. This I think the best on from the entired series. And even some of the things I did not like like the sorry of women being in jail. But tat not change my opinion how much I like Sloan and Lucifer together. Great book.

I love this entire series but this one is my absolute favourite. It's enemies to lovers meets small town romance meets second chance meets childhood friends. It is perfect. This is the kind romance book that doesn't leave you wondering how everything ended for all the characters because everything is wrapped up perfectly in the end

Wow, what a great book. I’m a sucker for friends to enemies to lovers, and both Sloane and Lucien were great characters in the last two books. They absolutely brought it as main characters! And for vanilla sex, that shit was spicy! I’m obsessed. 

Dark Romance, Friends to Enemies to Lovers, Lots of Trauma, 3 3/4 🔥
