This book had so much depth to it. The plot twists had me on the edge of my seat, and the darker topics made me really sit back and think on certain characters and how I feel about them.
I keep waiting to be annoyed by a main female character, as I usually am, but it’s just not happening. Rika, Alex, and Banks have my heart just as much as the boys do. ♡︎
Also.. closet scene in chapter 22. That is all.

• “People will think what they want to think, not because they believe they are right, but because it’s in their nature to maintain that they are.”
• “—I’m the only man whose attention you should be trying to get, and baby, you got it years ago while wearing another man’s clothes. So you can imagine how fucking beautiful you are to me right now wearing mine.”
• “Rika is my earliest memory, and I’ve loved her forever. The sun rises with her. It always has.”
• “—when you’re in the thick of abuse and still live with the torment in your head every day, it’s a little different. No one handles it. They just fake it better. How else do you cope with the terrible shit you’ve been through?”
• “Territorial is fine when it’s in the bedroom. It’s not fine when it keeps someone you’re supposed to love from living a life.”
• “When someone else misbehaves, it’s black-and-white, isn’t it? We judge, and we condemn, but when we do it, it’s a gray area all of a sudden.”

Well, either my expectations after Corrupt were so low, or, yes, Hideaway was so much better, I really don't know. I still hate Michael and Rika and although I understand that they are important for the series development in general, I didn't like them spoiling the story.
Kai, yeah, is definitely my (imaginary) soul mate. Yes, he is all over the place but, I could forgive and forget most of his discretions. But, Banks girl, how many times have I just wanted to slap her senseless??? Again, what's up with Douglas writing so not-likable FMC??? Luckily, she had her own redemption part (
Spice is on the spot: 🔥🔥🔥
