Where do I even begin....

This book was my first dabble into a taboo, and was pulled in from the first page.

This book consumed me, made me feel, and broke my heart at points. The character development I truly enjoyed and loved how all 3 men had different personalities.
They needed her to come in and shake things up in their life just as much as she needed them. The intensity with Kaleb was breathtaking. Noah is the feel good character that also has depth. Jake is the mature one but also has some growing to do. I was happy and sad at the same time that this wasn't a why choose but I knew a choice was needed and was so happy at who she chose.
I would definitely recommend this to people who need something a little different that rides a fine line.

Okay but… Kaleb is everything… I fell for him the moment they introduced him. I just had this feeling about him from the beginning. The ending made me cry so much…I was sobbing for 20 minutes straight. I hated Jake I won’t lie. There was something wrong with him. Noah was fine. My second all time favourite book. In love. I was really going to give it 3-4 stars at the beginning but after finishing the whole book…definitely 5 stars.

All I have to say is this book made me feel all kinds of disgusted. I read punk 57 and was obsessed with it. This was just distasteful. Persevered because I don’t DNF but this book challenged me on that.
No character development. No great storyline. Only good thing was well nothing

I found the acknowledgements of the book really interesting how the author came to write books like this. I give her props for writing what she wants to and not what she thinks people want to read.
