Very similar quality to Twisted Games. I liked the climax but after it was too fluffy. I really enjoyed this book best I’ve read out of the series so far.

I enjoyed this book overall (I was still thinking about how great twisted games was lol). I thought the smut was hot and heavy and I enjoyed Jules and Josh’s back and forth. Their relationship progressed nicely and the story was easy to follow. I did find myself laughing at some moments which was refreshing.

I wish Jules would’ve just told Josh everything from the beginning even though I understood why she was scared to. I also understand why Josh was upset with her but that scene after she confesses everything is brutal! He was really fucked yo for that. I appreciate that she didn’t just immediately go back to him but I wish she would’ve made him beg a little more because he was very fucked up. I am happy they reconciled though.

I actually like Alex better in this book than the first. He’s still grumpy but has more personality, plus he calls Josh out which is nice.

Another great enemies to lovers book. I loved the tension between Jules and Josh, their banter was very entertaining. The secret romance was an added bonus. And the drama for Jules past kept you drawn in. I didn’t like Josh’s behavior towards the end of the book. It was a little concerning.
