4.5

Four point five stars for the perfect mixture between the romance and the story woven around Jules and Josh. Just the right amount of heartbreak and happiness together with a minimum of adventure. Even though Jules character wasn‘t exactly my favourite, her and Josh kept me rooting till the end. Their ongoing bickering fills the book with a lot of funny interactions.

It is a perfect enemies-to-lovers book. Though I have to subduct a star for the (traumatic) s*x scenes. For me they were a bit too much. But that won‘t keep me from trying another of Ana Huang‘s books. The plot and storytelling is just too good. :D

3.5

well, i liked it more than i thought i would, but it still wasn't my favorite. i read the first two books back in 2021 and then never picked this up because i didn't think i would like jules and josh together. i will say that i came around to them by the very end (and i loved their cameos in twisted lies), but it was until the very end.

i honestly just was so disgusted with the whole "i lied" bit, iykyk, and don't know how josh is anyone's favorite twisted MMC - like i genuinely HATED him for that. i don't know if i would go as far to say it was sexual assault, but it was damn close if it wasn't

overall, i had a good time, but damn this book was way too long in length.

I think this is my favorite so far, but I'm looking forward to Christian and Stella's book even more.   I did not like Josh or Jules in the previous books, but I did like them in this book. Jules' past really explained a lot.  She really had nothing to be ashamed of.  I feel like she was a victim of so many terrible people.   Josh was a vain man whore, but A+ with the hate F***ing.  I liked the sex in this book more than the first 2.  I like that Alex was in this book a lot because, for some reason, I love the cold psycho characters.  

One thing that bothered me was the blackmail material felt like it would qualify as child pornograph... 

The second thing that bothered me was that I think Josh needed to grovel more.  I did believe that he was remorseful, but his actions were so hurtful.  I can't believe what he did and said to Jules, and I'm honestly not sure I could ever forgive someone if they did that to me.
