Well I'm glad I'm done with this duology.
Look I like it when the love interests have to grovel as much as the next person but the groveling in this book didn't really hit for me. Don't get me wrong, they groveled for a whileee.
Oh well, not every book hits for everyone.
Layla: strong asf. Love how long she held strong but her wavering endurance against the pack's advances didn't do it for me. Girl didn't have a backbone when it came to curbing her hormones and I really tried putting that on her hormones, only this happened throughout the book.
Atlas: he became a lil cutie in this one. I love when tough men go soft.l butter the problem comes up when there isn't really a build up to that change. We know he always wants to be in control so him being so docile when that control is challenged just doesn't click right.
Finn: I still love this little psycho. I don't have much to say other than that.
Jett: what he became will forever be my favorite outcome.Man became so docile and obedient. It's the cutest thing ever seeing tough men submit to their girl. I loved him by the end tbh. Despite his words being the harshest at the end of the 1st book.
I really wish we got to see him overcome his trauma but I suppose he found comfort in Layla. Their dynamic somewhat makes sense. (I'll stake what I get. Can't really change what's written)
Orion: his description makes him sound absolutely ethereal and I love that. Also like how the author managed his relationship with the pack and Layla.

Lots of groveling, as it should be. I liked getting to know the boys better. Jett was a huge surprise. I loved getting to know his history with Lilah more. Very sweet and spicy.

This was a great end to this story. I called it in at the end of the last book that I thought Jett and Orion would be my favorites, and I wasn't wrong. The information about Jett's pasted hit me hard, but we love a man that seeks help (even if he was pressured into it to begin with). I also absolutely loved seeing Orion come into his own and find his strength again.
The second book did bring the angst and tension again, that being said, I would have liked the timeline to have been a little less drug out. That is just personal preference.
