Lyssa Kay Adams has done it again!! This series is hands down my favorite romance series and I keep wanting more! I’ve been wanting to read Vlad’s story since we first learned about him and it did not disappoint. Elena and Vlad are so perfect together and I’m glad they had their happy ending. Removed 1/2 star because it was *too* slow of a burn for me, and the ending threw me off?? The plot during the last 30 pages felt rushed and unnecessary. BUT— it’s still amazing and I love the Bromance guys!! Can’t wait for Colton’s story next 😍

This book was pretty lackluster. Though I really liked Vlad, I found Elena to be a little flat. I also found that all of the secondary characters didn't resemble actual people and instead felt like one-dimensional caricatures with repetitive schticks. 

The dialogue between male characters also felt clearly like a woman trying to write idealized, "woke" men. Again, they just didn't talk naturally and so many scenes felt inorganic.  

There were parts that were funny and sweet, but I don't think this book was a winner.
