This is my third Jennifer Hillier book and I didn't think it would live up to my expectations considering everyone was raving about it. Plus I was sort of in a slump-ish mood to where the book I've been reading books that were just okay/decent in a row but not books where that I found good/great. So I had alot of high expectations for this book and I'm so happy I was not let down.
I do have to admit the beginning was a bit slow for me. I wasn't sure what direction she was gonna go into and nothing really sparked for me until
Also, I do wish the author would just do dual POVs between Marin and McKenzie because we would get the book in Marin's POV for multiple chapters (everything is told in 3rd person) and then we just switch to McKenzie out of the blue. You get used to it after the first time, but it should've just been dual POV to make it easier on the reader.
On a completely unrelated note, Chapter 8 literally has my heart! For most of the book, I ADORED Sal and Marin's friendship. It reminds me of own. I absolutely loved her and loved Sal.😍 I like their whole backstory too and how they met. I don't ship them together, but I loved their dynamic.
I'm literally a sucker for Jennifer Hillier's romance subplots. The backstories for them especially are so interesting. It make me want more. It lowkey makes me want her to write a romance book because I just can't get enough of her romance subplots.😂
This would've been a 10 out of 10 read for me but I will admit there were some things I didn't like and also there were some parts that dragged in my opinion but overall I loved this book
