ive wanted to read rider’s pov since the first book, even with the whole “he’s on the bad side of the problem”. this book definitely was sosososo much better than the other two, and i havent even read the third one cause i cant with the biker slang 😂 

i just wanted my baby rider to have his happy ending and im so glad he did, bc he deserves it, as all the punishment that he received.

the topics in this one were unpredictable, i really didnt think THAT was about to happen until it happened, first time ive ever read something like that in a book.

sad that i took so long to decide if i wanted to  read the third book or not, but it was worth the wait cause it made cry a lot, and since ive been dealing with some personal stuff, it was a great way to cry instead of rewatching grey’s anatomy’s sad episodes 😂

there are heavy topics, sooo read them before diving into this book!! probs wont read the rest of the series cause i dont want to keep reading about how they treat rider like shit even though he helped them 🤷🏽‍♀️

When I say I was SOBBING I mean it. This book shattered my emotions. I liked Rider from the beginning and I knew I would love his redemption but I didn’t expect to feel this deeply, wow.

Im unsure if I can even attempt the rest of this series because this one was too good and I don’t see how the plot could get better.

i say this in every review i make for the hangmen series: "i'm not sure how i feel about this book" but for some reason i just keep reading them...........this shit is fucked up on a whole new level, every book surprises me a little more because whenever i think it cannot possibly get darker, it gets *darker*, i'm halfway through phebe's book and i'm not sure if i'll continue the series, it is dark romance and there are many triggering subjects being approached however if you're reading a reviwe for the fourth book, i'm sure you knew this by now! i enjoyed the relationship development in both lilah's and maddie's books, but here......there's really not much development, they just talk and see each other a couple of times ad then bOOM *love* i felt like there was no depth here, i did like the female main character and the little plot twists we got but idk!
