☆ Just a quick summary ☆
An enemies to lovers story.
Two Step-brothers grow up disliking eachother and one night of fun changes everything.
The night completely turns both their lives upside down and both are separated for years until the unexpected happens.
As both have to deal with their new reality they have to learn how to show emotion and heal.
P.s. - Look I'm really bad at summaries but I really don't want to spoil you lol!

YOU NEED TO READ THIS NOW!!!
Honestly I'm not completely sure how to start this review, I'm speechless.
It's been almost 2 weeks since I've read this and it still has a huge affect on me. It's one of those books that will stay with you for the rest of your life.
It's a very heavy and painful book to read, but it's done beautifully! There's fun moments here and there as well as spicy moments, which made it more easier to read.
The writing was fantastic which I'm always impressed by when it comes to CE Ricci! She was definitely born to be an author. Can't wait to read more from her!

tear jerker
Omg this book broke me and then put me back together. This is full of angst, tears and heartbreak. And it goes to about 90% of the books. You will need lot of tissues when you read this.

This story was addicting, compelling, and emotional. I bawled my eyes out at one point. Ugly sobbing with mascara running down my face tears. This story broke me and slowly put me back together.
Cannon and Easton had intense chemistry with one another emotionally and physically. They were each other's rocks through the entire book. Their connection was sizzling hot. *cue turning on a fan* I loved how they just knew what each other needed, and were constantly a support system during the hard time they were going through.
I was totally enraptured throughout this whole book with everything that was going on. The epilogue just brought a big smile to my face.
If you love audiobooks, this one is a great one to pick up. 10/10! The narrators made me feel every emotion with them.
