Reviews with content warning for Addiction - Full Tilt

I'm so...sad right now. I know there is another part to this duology, but I don't want to forget my impressions as I read that one. I'm not usually a fan of insta-love but I'd put this in a completely different category if I really needed to. Kasey is so starved for meaningful connection in her life, and Jonah is trying to protect the ones he loves from what he is going through. While she never expected to find a connection with simple kindness from a stranger, he never expected to desire a connection with anyone this deep considering how hard he works to keep himself from forging new relationships. The love they find in one another is lovely, and I really hope that the second book in the duology will be the balm I need to soothe my tattered little soul. Plus, I think Hello Fresh would appreciate if I'd stop crying through books while I cook their meals. It looks bad on paper that it seems like their meals make me cry.

i was invested in this book from the first page, and i can safely say that i absolutely loved jonah and kasey and thought that their relationship was so beautiful and heartbreaking. it was lovely to see how he helped her so much, and how she made him so happy.

i thought that the ending was obviously extremely sad but i did think that his gift to her was so sweet and it made me really happy. i did see the blurb for the next book however, and i am not really a fan of how it’s been set up for kacey and theo to be together, as i know jonah wants them to be happy, but it still annoys me that it would be with his brother, and i feel like i love jonah and kacey together too much to fully appreciate another relationship of hers. despite this, i do think i will give all in a go, as i think that the writing of the author is so beautiful and lovely.
