Another amazing book from Lucy. Good guy x bad girl and found family. This book was the perfect pairing to the first in the Knockemout series. I loved how this book built and expanded upon the world Lucy built in Things We Never Got Over. This one focuses on allowing yourself to be vulnerable and realising that it doesn’t have to be seen as a weakness to share this with others and can actually make you stronger. About bringing yourself back from the depths of darkness. I loved that it followed the same formula as the first, set in the same world, building on the characters and the crime sub-plot continued and linked to the original but was still unique, with different mcs, tropes, and themes.

I really enjoyed this book, truly a solid sequel to Things We Never Got Over! This one did take me a little while to get into- partly because I didn’t feel well and partly because I needed to jog my memory of the plot of the first book in the series. Let me tell you though once I started hitting a groove with the book it was game over. I loved Lina and Nash, they cared about each other right from the start even if sparks were flying as they argued. I liked seeing their relationship evolve. This series also has a great cast of characters. I love that this book is romantic suspense but also is sweet and funny and spicy, it really delivers on all fronts. I am dying to read Lucian and Sloane’s book next.
