This was predictable but it was funny and just a good time dude. 

Listen. The plot? Predictable. The characters? Mid. The vibes? Immaculate. This was so fun. I laughed out loud. I swooned. I had multiple WTF moments about her being just so OK with him being like, a murderer and being an overbearing, jealous, grade A for Asshole, douchebag. However, I'm going to read the rest of them because the banter (when things weren't going like, completely off the rails) was actually quite fun. And I did enjoy the female characters so like, I want the next one.

I would recommend this book and series to ANYONE who's into dark romance. The pacing was perfection, the complexity of the characters was just *chef's kiss*, and honestly the overall execution was amazing. I don't think there was anything I found wrong with the books itself, but you'd have to experience it for yourself.

I definitely enjoyed the plot. But I’ve realized I’m not super into the guy who is an asshole to everyone except the one girl. Maybe I’m getting old 🤣. But I can appreciate the smut and the unfolding of some big twists. It was fascinating to me, but maybe a little too close to 50 shades for me.

I enjoyed the plot and the spice. It started out as a slow burn but after that whooosh holy cow. I didn’t expect the plot twist with Alex’s family and that rattled my boots. I’m a little upset that Josh never really forgave Alex but you know that’s kinda understandable as to why but it was good. I enjoyed how after he broke her heart they spent time recollecting the trust they use to have instead of making up and getting back together in 2 days it was reasonable and I liked that about it you know. I recommend it considering I wanna read the other three.
