• My review is for all three books
• The series is wonderful yet Sakavic found a way to ruin it every time it began to shine. From the unneeded
  sex
  scenes-which frankly felt forced and were included for the sake of fanservice, entire lulls in between rushed arcs, to the edgy, dramatic, and repetitive situations all come off as above average quality Wattpad mafia fanfics. That being said Sakavic still had me wanting to find out what happened to the characters despite my aversion to sport themed content normally. Finally, the ending felt entirely too rushed and highlighted how Sakavic uses trauma as a romance plot rather than the seriousness it should have been dealt with.

This is the darkest book in the trilogy and definitely not for the faint hearted. Please go through the trigger warnings before you attempt some pretty brutal themes. But if you can stomach them, you shall be rewarded by beautiful damaged characters doing their best to survive, going to therapy (eventually) and making something of themselves. The Foxes are the best found family and Wymack and Abby are the true MVP's of this story

I couldn't put it down

THIS BOOK 😳😳🤯🤯🤯
I… I can’t wait to start the next one, that’s for sure. 
Look up the trigger warnings before hand, this book goes a bit (a lot) harder than the first one, so Dx
I don’t really know what to say, the story is insane, the characters go through a lot more this book than the first one. And we get to meet them a bit more. Insights on the lives of all characters, specially Kevin and Andrew’s, get the reader through the plot and make the twists make sense and be predicted just in time with Neil 🥺
Neil, poor Neil, boy needs a hug :((((
