I was surprised how much I enjoyed this book. The MC is snarky and witty and the chemistry between the two MC's is *chef's kiss*.
dark tense fast-paced

I’m a total sucker for an enemies to lover / bully romance and this book hit all the marks. The fact that it’s part of a series and has OG Gossip Girl vibes is icing on the cake. I’m totally hooked especially with lines like this:

“If you had to choose between killing me and fucking me, you’d be on your back everytime…and that goes both ways.”

Side note: Blue and West gave me major Tory / Darius vibes from ZA minus the magic!

I could not put this book down. One thing I love is when a book has so much more than just the relationship, this book was just that. Blue is struggling because of her home life and West’s dad sucks so I was constantly on my toes not knowing what would happen next. I also loved the whole gossip page that was included and just the family feelings I got. 

This is a bully romance but out of how many I have read this was extremely tame. And then the ending swept me off my feet, very much To All The Boys I Loved Before feelings. I really enjoyed this book and I am continuing the series.

DID NOT FINISH: 94%

The scene that convinced me to read the book was a letdown and I wasn’t really into it
