I wasn’t too big of a fan of the majority of the book, I felt like it was repetitive and dragged on but I like how the ending wrapped it up so that helped redeem the book a little for me. It very much was not my style and there were certain scenes and descriptions I could have done without personally. The characters weren’t very interesting to me and none of the characters besides the main two were fleshed out characters. The relationship between Rhys and Bridget seemed toxic because they relied on each other too much and </spoiler he drinks alcohol for the first time when they get separated from each other which is completely out of character, but at least it didn’t continue after that> There is also something mentioned in the book that was never brought up again, but I’m assuming that’s for the fourth book.

He is way too possesive and the relationship is super toxic. Hoped for something else.

Okay first off loved it definitely better than twisted love . I will say that because the book takes place over four years there’s so much detail and it moves so fast. It all blends together nicely though. The emotional aspect is there and it really just tugs and crushed your heart strings. Definitely a rollercoaster ride but a pretty good one at that. On to twisted hate….

It is a good book. It was pretty predictable but there was a side plot that was unexpected. If yu dont like dark books and you need

a happy ending

then this book is for you.

This was sweet. Rhys' description was unrealistic and I found it too fast paced to get any real relationship building in the first half. Towards the end it felt like we were scrambling to tie up the lose ends because they didn't really make sense with the storyline.
It was enjoyable but it was lacking in plot planning and proper foreshadowing, in my opinion.

This is me being generous  in one of my last books of this year. 

I adored Twisted Love so I flew right into  this book. Knowing it was going to be the least relatable. But yet I was I excited because  it's  a similar story to Young Royals except  adult level maturity and very straight   relationship.  I will say the age gap automatically  impacted this rating to. 

Both Bridget and Rhys were often the exact type of people  you expected them to be. And it was very boring sometimes  throughout  the storyline. That said they both are very plain, messy characters  that deserved each other. For mor e than one reason I'm glad I finished this one and can move on to Twisted Hated and Lies.
