Holy cow this was angsty! I literally could not put this down. I loved how possessive and protective Ares was of Raven. I also really liked Raven and how she finally came into her own by the end of this book. 

The longing. The PINING. The angst. This book was perfection! I cried, I laughed, I wanted to throw my Kindle across the run at parts. If this isn’t on your TBR add it immediately. 

Also, Hannah was then freaking worst!!!!

This was so good!!! These characters went on quite the rollercoaster! My heart was breaking thinking they would never get their hea, but I’m so glad they finally did!! They earned it!

Y’all gonna hate me but…

I only read this book was because everyone was saying they didn’t like it and I wanted to see if they were right.

Raven:
- Deserves so much better!
- I’m not into the modeling characters but okay-
- We get it…you’re a nepotism baby

Ares:
- He needs to stop getting ppls hopes up-
- The way he hurts Raven thinking he’s doing the right thing-
- I guess you groveled but not to the extent.


It was a good read overall. My heart didn’t drop like I wanted it to.
- Hannah better get what she deserves bc the way she treated Raven is unacceptable.
- The mother too needs to pay for what she did.
There were parts I didn’t like but either way it was a somewhat of a good read.

Overall 3/5 stars.
Is it worth the hype? No.
Would I recommend it to someone? Not really.

I ONLY READ THIS BECAUSE I NEEDED A REFRESHER!!!!

Look…
There’s a lot to write down so be prepared…

Raven (fc: Kristina Schulman)
- I’m glad she stood up for herself and knew her worth!
- Girl it’s okay to be selfish like it’s not going to hurt you.
- I feel so bad for her because she was always sacrificing herself for others and never for herself ever since she was young.

Ares (fc: Alessio Petrazzuoli)
- I hate him bc why would do what you did-
- This man always hurting Raven and giving her false hope.
- His words may fool Raven but not me-


This book made me mad whenever we read anything about Hannah and Raven’s mom they both deserve nothing but- *animal noises*

I don’t know why I would willing read this again but I did.

The Windsor siblings are truly the best and the way they cared for Raven and others!

Xavier and Sierra are childish and that reminded me why I hate enemies to lovers.

I’m curious about Luca’s story so that what I’ll be reading next month…hopefully-

I still think Raven would be better off with Lex-
Don’t come for me-

Overall 3/5 stars. This book truly anger me with Hannah. The world would be at peace if she never existed. I still stand with my first review.

Part of me really loved this book so fucking much! I loved the drama and the angst.

The main characters were a little annoying sometimes because they were going in circles and repeating the same thing over and over. The sister, well I hated her!

The smut scenes were fucking amazing
