I love Daisy and Christian more than BJ and Parks… were they still toxic? Yes. But I genuinely liked their connection more. They also weren’t constantly trying to up one another in the revenge department, so that’s a plus

Ok yes the footnotes were a little excessive. I read this in my kindle so could pretty much ignore them if I wanted to.
But wtf, Daisy?! I liked her but mostly hated her. Kinda feel bad for Christian, but he also treats women like shit. Julian is just off the rails at this point, but honestly still kinda love him.
The ending just made no logical sense to me. I know it’s fiction but come on. Is a police officer really going to involve a civilian to rescue kidnapped children?! Like bffr.
We’ll see what shitstorm the next book brings…

Daisy and Rome are the mirror image of Magnolia and BJ: except Daisy and Rome aren’t endgame. They don’t seem to be in love with each other, but they love each other. They just go back because of familiarity.
Christian is literally telling us in paragraphs how he loves Daisy - but it’s just “her face”, or “we’re not like that”, “we don’t do jealous.” Christian loves Daisy and Daisy loves Christian. Difference: Daisy knows she loves Christian, Christian doesn’t know he loves Daisy.
I really like taking my time with these books, I’m not even close to binge reading.
Daisy is so messy with all these guys, seriously! I don’t think she’s calculated with it (like Magnolia in her books) but this is so messy. It’s just really feeds into Christian’s insecurities about never being “the one”.
Christian’s development was so beautiful, whereas Daisy’s downfall was so painful.
They’re all messy, and I love it.

Preferred this story to Magnolia Parks but honestly hated the ending. I wanted things to work out between Christian and Daisy. Honestly though, all of these people are too much of a disaster.
Pretty much a rehash of Book One with new names. I don’t really buy Christian + Daisy, though the driving scene was cute.
