There is a lot more character development for side characters here and they are highlighted a lot more, and going through their own issues. But some of the side stories felt like they were there to add filler and I found myself not caring too much about a lot of them.
This is a very easy read with simple writing, but something about it is addicting, it's apparent why this book series is now adapted into a tv show, it reads perfectly for a teen drama.
Man, everyone is way too forgiving, or am I just petty? Because I would be holding a grudge way longer, and I'm not talking about just one character, I mean multiple. I'm pretty certain no one here would have earned my forgiveness besides James, and maybe that just means I'm a bad person.
I really love James here, his maturity is evident, he's really grown into himself, and he seems so genuine. The author was great at making me hate Mr. Beaufort. And Ruby remained to be just as likeable as the previous two books.
Toward the end I found myself getting really frustrated with the conversations and choices these characters were making.
For some reason I was under the impression that Ember was Ruby's little sister all of book two and majority of this book, but even with her being older than Ruby I still have major ick with her and Wren. There is probably no amount of redemption you could have written for me to like Wren, he drugged Ruby and then kissed her, and then went after her sister. And Wren saying "I truly thought that was in the past" when referring to trying to take advantage of drunk Ruby is actually disgusting

Save Us is the 3rd and final installment in the Maxton Hall series. It picks up immediately where Save You ended. We get even more POVs in this one, but they are all distinct and easy to keep separated. There were times where I wished that James and Ruby got more on page time. I missed my babies!
Ruby's life is upside-down after the cliffhanger at the end of Save You. Everyone else is also going through some sort of strife, but things are resolved by the end. The ending did maybe feel a little rushed as new information was dropped in at around 85%. I still enjoyed the read and can't wait to see the adaptation brought to TV!
Thanks to Berkley and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

This story is full of tension, heartbreak, and ultimately, hope. Ruby and James face seemingly impossible obstacles—family pressures, misunderstandings, and the risk of losing everything they’ve worked for—but their love never wavers. Watching them fight for each other, support one another, and overcome every challenge was both emotional and inspiring. In the end, their love conquers all, proving that true connection can survive even the toughest trials. I absolutely loved this book and would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys heartfelt romance with strong characters and a love story that truly triumphs.
