I liked it but... the toxic factor is too much. Until Indie gave in to Alex, I really really enjoyed it. The tension and banter between the 2 main characters was amazing. 

But then, they got together and Alex's delusional mind became even more delusional. He is toxic and thinks everything belongs to him, that he is the most important being in the whole world, and everyone else is beneath him, even Indie.

The only 2 things that made me give this book a 3 stars instead of 2 was the hallway midnight writing sessions when Alex became a tiny bit more vulnerable in front of Indie and the last 100 pages where Alex gets his shit together.

The middle of this book is what you love about LJ Shen. Hot, fast, witty, everything is perfect. The beginning and the end... slow and dragging. Clearly LJ had a great idea. I love all her stuff. This is a reread!!
