A truly problematic and trashy read that if you get into it you are somehow unable to stop.. don't think I'd recommend it to anyone, and yet I'm probably gonna read the next book out of morbid curiosity..

Soooo this one is complicated... The first half was a decent 4 star reading with some problematic and stereotypical scenes but nothing really bad. Then the second half came and it was just hot garbage. It seemed like the love interest and the MC were talking two different languages because they never understood the other ones problem. The "spicy" scenes made me cringe so bad and the only thing that kept me reading was the wattpad like writing. I wanted to like it so bad but I couldn't overlook some of the problems the book has. Overall the plot was fine and could have developed great but the execution was horrible. The addictive writing, some funny jokes, Easton (personal favourite) and the first half definitely push the rating for me but it just doesn't deserve the 3 stars. If you are in a reading slump and still have interest, go for it. 
Now to the ending (spoiler free): The ending was so unneccesary. Without giving it away, they can technically start from scratch in the next book. And without any lessons to take away I ask myself: Why did they write this book? (Probably so i could write this passionately written review ;))

Ok. I have never written a review before so I'm sorry if it's hard to understand. BUT. THIS. GODDAMN. BOOK. Mentally scarred me.
The book (and the series) is a literal Wattpad mafia mets the rich bad boy fanfiction and (as someone who used to eat that shit every day) it makes me sick to the core to know that *this* is considered ok to be published. Honestly? It would've been a *great* idea if it kept the "plot", but turned the message from "this is totally ok and not toxic" to "this behaviour is not ok, but everybody can change. Therapy and other professionals are there for you. And if they don't change, leave them. Also, *CONSENT*??? HELLO??? YOU THERE?" 
To think that this book went through so many hands before it was published and IT STILL WENT TROUGHT. If someone, anyone, girl, boy, non binary, teen, child, adult or elder reads this review, please know that this kind of behaviour is toxic, not ok and dangerous.

1.0

The characters were so flat. The men are all abusers and everyone has like one character trait.

Callum: being drunk
 Reed: anger issues  (+commitment issues)
Sawyer and Sebastian: twins
Gideon: Swimming
Brooke: being Callum's girlfriend
Ella: nOt LiKe oThEr GiRLs (+obsessed with Reed)

Not only the characters are horrible but the writing is just so bad too...

nikakulic's review against another edition

The main character has internalized misogyny and constantly slut shames other girls. The main love interest is a brat and mean for no apparent reason. The love interest's brother harasses the mc and the love interest laughs it off. This book was terrible but I can proudly admit that I enjoyed it because I love trashy romance book and this one is as trashy as they come. The love story was lacking but it was a fun read and it got me out of a reading slump and for that I am thankful. Have fun reading!<3
