3 stars!

This story was kind of cute, but also entirely unsatisfying? I felt everything went way too easily and I would have liked to have a more expanded view of how exactly it happened that they broke up. I mean, it's something we get told multiple times, but I would have liked to read about the exact sequence of events.

I’ve always wanted a book about Sav and Gideon! However, I felt it was too short, too rushed, and nothing was really discussed/solved.

This is much more of a 3.5 for me. The jumping between times and people was confusing at some parts. I wish it would’ve told one time and then the other because I’m still not certain of everything. Otherwise, it’s the same as the previous books in the series. Big protective man who only wants one girl and needs to have her and she’s independent but eventually re-falls for him.

Boring! But at least I’m finally done with the Royals.

Ok so from what I gathered, this story is only available via wattpad & also the newsletter. 

Its a short story, following Gideon, the oldest Royal sibling, and takes place after the happenings of the first 3 books (Paper Princess, Broken Prince, Twisted Palace)- so it is best to read those 3 before this one so you know everything that is going on. 

I liked having insight into Gid's & Sav's story. Yes he was a asshole. And as much ad I enjoyed this story, i didn't love it as much as Reeds & Ellas. Also, I still don't know if he 100% redeemed himself- but i am glad that Sav forgave him & took him back. And, i didn't care for how it just ended like it did. It just left much left unresolved. But like i said, i did enjoy it and liked seeing Gideon & learning more about his and Savannah's relationship. 4⭐ out of 5⭐.

I honestly didn’t expect to love this as much as I did! I’ve always wanted a Gid and Sav story, and even though a novella wasn’t enough for me, I’m exceedingly happy with the ending.❤️

no.

what did i just read.

how did this get so many good reviews. it was awful. and not in the way the rest of the series was bc i loved those. this one tho. this was a mess wtff.

first of all THIER RELATIONSHIP IS SO TOXIC. they are both awful people, and it was glorified over for no reason other than to make this “book” seem shorter?

idek. but i have so many problems with this book (spoilers??), starting with the fact gideon didn’t tell her her nudes were leaked and ending with the fact that she was mad at him (major spoilers kind of) for being raped by this woman. at the start it was glossed over with the fact that she didn’t know he was being blackmailed. BUT THEN WE LEARN THAT REED TOLD HER. SO SHE KNEW. this whole book was so awful, boring, rushed, and just not good. they are both awful people and they just couldn’t stop doing terrible things.
