I get that it's a major part of the story, but it feels like there was more focus put into the smut than the actual plot, making the rest of the book feel very watered down. this book definitely didn't need to be that long and no where near as much sex was needed.
That being said, i did love all the characters and enjoyed seeing how they connected (p.s. jake is the best)

Majority of this book was sex. Little to no plot and at times it made me feel bad for the guys in the book. Rachel annoyed me, Mars felt entirely useless in the beginning, and the other two were there.

PLLLEASEEE TELL ME WHY CHAPTER 83 IS IN RACHEL'S POV????¿¿¿¿

Chapters 83 and 93 should have never been in Rachel's perspective. That should've been Caleb or Jake *at least*.

But anyway I was shook to my core when I saw the amount of pages but I ate them right up.

Smut was 11/10
Character dynamics were phenomenal.
The writing did not give 14 year old wattpad fanfic.

Good smut + decent writing = hooked, line, and sinker

Sometimes it felt like you were stuck at the same problem over and over in different fonts like you're just reusing the same conflicts. "Yes I do love you this can work".

Speaking of which thank fuck for this part cause I was just about fed tf up

“Wait,” I say. “Everybody fucking stop. Rachel, we’re not gonna play
this game with you. At least, I know I’m not. I will not spend a single
moment of my time convincing you to stay—”
“Don’t be an asshole,” Jake growls at me.
“I’m not being an asshole,” I counter. “I’m knowing my own self-worth. I
don’t beg the people I love to love me back. Jake, get off your fucking knees,
and stop being a pussy. If she wants to go, let her go. If she wants to stay, let
her stay. We don’t try to convince her either way.”
“Agreed,” says Mars, crossing his arms over his bare chest

I did start to get a bit annoyed with Rachel's character and having chapters I think shouldn't be in her pov being in her pov didn't help but from the jump I was ready to give this book 5 stars and I still hold it in very high regard.

I’m pretty sure this is the spiciest book I’ve ever read, which is really saying something. I think this would be a higher rating for a lot of other people, but a lot of the tropes in this just didn’t work for me. Absolutely WILD sex scenes though lol
