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.

Lina is Knox’s ex girlfriend and current one of best friends. She doesn’t share her emotions much and she is a love them and leave them type. 
Nash is a settle down and get married type and Knox’s brother. 
They meet trying to save Naomi ( at the end of book 1). They can’t keep their eyes off of each other. But know they aren’t meant to be.  But Nash feels alive when he is near her for the first time since he has been shot. 
They make an arrangement to start sleeping together ( just sleeping). And things pick up from there. They both let their guards down for each other and have to learn to give love in different ways.
