Spoiler alert!!!
I don't even know where to start, this book was heartbreaking mess.
I never readed book that got me that emotional and angry than this one.
When the author said listen to her warning, she was fucking serious. Book two is even more emotional then the first one.
The way this characters made me feel is beyond me. I was left confused, angry, heartbroken and happy at the same time. Words can't describe how i feel right know, but one thing i know, I'm glad the book is over. I never ever felt more relieved then when i readed their epilouge and the two words "the end". Don't get me wrong, it's not like i didn't like the book it's the emotions i feeled while reading and the relief that washed over me when everything miserable in their life was over.
Never in my life would i guess that fictional characters actions would make me SO angry especially Rain one of the mmc. I was so so angry at him but at same time emphasized with him, but what he did to River was beyond me and i must say his groveling wasn't enough for me. I connected with River in the first book right away even with his snarky comments i know how it feels when someone suddenly doesn't like you for whatever reason in his perspective it's his sexuality. River was different person the second book and i feeled the pain from him radiating. Rain, Rain, Rain what to do with him. He left me heartbroken and disappointed at the same time. I know his trauma and i feel his pain that doesn't excuse the fact that he implied pain on River. From this is really know that I have "Love/hate" relationship with Rain's character, i was so angry at him almost the entire book especially with the shit he pulled with Roman.
And then there's Roman who is officially on my shit list right when he sexually assaulted River who was i must say out of his mind hight as fuck. It's not like he raped him or anything but it was assault regardless and i was more angry that Rain didn't do shit, he was standing there frozen like an idiot. That was the chapter when I knew Roman was going to be big problem. Every time Roman was in the chapter he manege to pissed me off with his words and actions. I never felt more hatred towards a character. I didn't even pity him for his one sided love towards his "best friend" because he could stayed the night everything happened instead he choosed to left him in the most critical and confusing part of his life right after he kissed him. Like who does that?? And then when Rain needs his help after four year's of no contact you would say he moved on, but no instead he's being total dick to River. The way this man is delusional is laughable. And don't even let me started on how selfish that motherfucker is, the things he thinked when River was shot?? Discusting.
I'm still kinda wrecking bell whith pent up anger,why i must torture myself with this kind of books i don't know, but in the end everything is how it should be and I'm glad they got their happy ending.
