Having the time of my life reading about Blue and the boys. This one's a bit more Ronan centered (as a friend of mine lovingly pointed out), and I loved it because as a Capricorn I obviously have a penchant for showy, snarky and emotionally damaged boys so 10/10 no comments.

Am rereading this along with a friend reading the series for the first time, still enjoy it just as much. It's such a different series to the other books you find in the genre, and the relationships between the characters are so developed and fulfilling
