Shut up, shut up, SHUT UP! Danielle Lori, you are a fucking genius! 

I would give my life to read this book again for the first time. I didn't want it to end. Like I was actually upset when I reached the epilogue. I would've loved to have read about their wedding day and all the cute scenes Christian mentions.

Sure, there's Rhysand from ACOTAR. And there's Rowan from TOG. And everyone else in between. But no one....NO ONE....can top Christian Allister. 

This is the best spicy book with a plot I've ever read. Gianna: A badass woman. Christian: A sexy FBI agent. I mean, what else even is there. 

I haven't read the first book because I saw the review of this book from my favorite bookstagrammer (@thebooksiveloved) and decided I HAD to read it. But you best believe that my kindle library will be full of Danielle Lori after tonight.

I really liked it, it was a bit fast paced compared to my normal reads, but it had a good balance of sex and actual plot and development. I'd say this book focused a lot more on the characters, and what made them the way they are than the first book "The Sweetest Oblivion" By Danielle Lori. Overall I enjoyed the character Gianna, she had a lot of good backstory, and it all made sense after the reveals. I also like Christian Allister's character because he also had a really good backstory, I just wish homeboy went to therapy's sooner in life. Lots of references to the first book, at some points the timeline matches up.
