I loved this book especially Christian and the way it ended but it’s still a bit lower than Twisted Love. 

Unlike the other books this book started with Christian admitting he likes Stella and I loved it. I love Christian’s humor since his seriousness can turn funny I also love his relationship with his “friends” especially with Rhys since you can tell they care about each other. I LOVE Alex his such a mood and the fact that his a father is the cutest and the way he let his daughter play with his hair filled my heart. I didn’t like the stalker part and the whole breakup part since it didn’t feel strong enough. I found it stupid how a guy that we didn’t hear much of was the stalker I think it would’ve been more powerful if we heard more of him or if it was someone closer to her. I also found the reason they broke up weak since yea I get that she doesn’t like people controlling her but let’s be fr I don’t think that reason was worth for a breakup since Christian kept mentioning that he wasn’t what she thought he was and there was more darkness to him so I would think there would’ve been a more powerful reason. I love how at the end they all got along and just formed their life’s. The weeding of Ava and Alex was cute and although he consideres Josh his only true friend Rhys and Christian were also there. Love the relationship of Bridget and Rhys and their kid have they’re so cute. Love how Christian was able to change and actually feel love although it must’ve been hard.

Firrst off I am biased because I don't love Ana Huang's writing, but they always seem to hook me just like Twisted Lies. This book is chessy and unrealistic. There were many parts of the plot that didn't add up to me and those unrealistoc parts dampned the book for me. 

Out of the whole series I would say this book is 3rd and the 1st book is last. To be fair even in the book Ana Huang states that it is cheesy so I don't really fault her. I just didn't particularly get entranced by this book because of that, but her writing intruged me enough to rread thhe whole series so.

This book is probably the best written in the series but at this point I was so over the morally grey billionaire trope. For some reason her morally grey billionaires are more interesting when they are the background characters instead of the male lead. This goes for Christian, Alex and Dante.
