An amazing book I love this series so far can’t wait to continue the series and see what happens next especially with that cliffhanger which I’ll admit I thought was going to happen but still I need to know what happens next

I really liked this book. There was points were I was asking myself what was actually happening but it was still good.
It's not perfect in my eyes. It has it flaws but it's still enjoyable. Very easy to read very quickly.

this book gave me what i needed. an easy-to-read, mysterious, funny, romantic book filled with plot-twists. was it the best book i’ve ever read? no, but it was enjoyable. i really enjoyed all the secrets the hawthorne house had to offer, with hidden passages and symbols around every corner. it fufilled my childhood dream of having a house with a secret tunnel to each room. what captivated me the most was probably the romantic side plots and constant indecisiveness about which brother i wanted avery to end up with. i think the author did this well without losing the plot throughout the book. i’m very excited to start the second book of the series ‘the hawthorne legacy’ after reading the teaser of the first 3 chapters in the inheritance games. this book is good if you’re wanting to get out of a reading slump or to indulge in the billionaire lifestyle on the side.overall, i’ve given this book a 3.75 star rating as i felt that it didn’t really stand out to me or connect with me enough to rate it any higher.

It was good! A little on the nose sometimes? And I’ll be frl I’m not the biggest fan of the romance element? But big fan of Mr. Hawthorne!! ( also Alexander and Nash kind of slay in their own way Tbf )
