I loved Addie and Beckett's story. Besides Shiloh's book, I think this was the story I was looking forward to the most. Beckett was a secretly tortured hero and Addie's past was definitely a struggle to overcome. Seeing these two become the other's safe space was so sweet. Catherine will always keep you on your toes with the twists in her book!

"All these books have exactly the same plot—" and I eat it up every time! I'll take "heroine nearly dying in the third act" over a third-act-breakup any day 🤭

I was so excited to read about Addie and Beckett and those two are just perfect for eachother. This was one of those books I literally put everything else down for to read, it had me HOOKED. 

Addie's finally free of her family's clutches but she still carries a lot of mental and physical scars and Beckett is so considerate of her history with abuse, I know it's literally just basic human decency but it still made me tear up every time, okay.

I wish we could've touched a bit more on Beckett's time abroad and his own trauma, as Addie did get most of the trauma space allotted here but other than that, I really really loved this book ❤ 

Was hoping for a book on Officer Young but Laiken's gonna be fun, too!
