A solid read, but the 'reject her to save her' BS had me eye-rolling right alongside Misery.

i was honestly scared to read ali hazelwood again since i didn’t like the first book i picked up from her, but i’m so glad i gave this one a chance—it didn’t disappoint! ana was absolutely adorable (i lost count of how many times i said it), and i loved lowe’s pov at the start of each chapter. the tension, temptation, and back-and-forth had me hooked, and the little moments between ana and misery melted me. serena, being the only constant in misery’s life, added such depth, and their bond was beautiful to read—even if my theory about serena being Lowe’s mate was way off. however, i felt the story could have delved deeper into misery’s anger, which would have made its impact even stronger. this story kept me guessing with its twists, but also made me feel deeply for the characters, and hazelwood really captured the yearning and ache of love-deprived girlies.
