What a good book. It’s similar to the first one of the series, that both the MCs have a lot of trauma. It’s so deep, though. These are two characters I feel for on such a deep level and I loved them together. Not to mention the dirty talk!!

Opposites Attract, Grumpy/Sunshine, 3 1/2 🔥

“Getting close to another person was suicide, as far as he was concerned. People eventually walked away, although he wasn’t sure if that was a universal rule, or one that pertained only to him.”

This book was very good. I love Grace and Aaron together. The "forbidden love" aspect linked very well with their instant love connection. I love how confident and resolute Grace is in working towards and doing what she thinks is right. I also loved to see Aaron blossom throughout the book and turn into a more well rounded character than we saw in the first book.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Grief, Sexual content, and Gaslighting

Moderate: Toxic relationship, Cursing, Death, Fire/Fire injury, Murder, Mental illness, Violence, Suicide, Kidnapping, Abandonment, and Confinement

Minor: Alcohol and Death of parent

Grace has dealt with a very heavy past brought about by a parent who doesn't understand what she's capable of. Most of the content warnings deal with her relationship to her family and a traumatic experience at a leadership camp she attended growing up. Aaron is on this journey in part because of his mother's death.
