Listen the plot was good, great even but it put me in a 20 day reading slump simply because of how slow everything was. And once you read the main plot point 👀😭… all the timeline does is jump tremendously. Also it was just confusing to keep up with everything and who everyone was. Tobias really just crawled all over my nerves 🙄 like give me a break. I just wasn’t really entertained I guess. I much preferred the first book despite all the lingering secrets.

I got two words for this book, daddy issues. BUT I absolutely loved it! This book broke me. I’m at a loss for words. I loved Cecelia with Dominic and Sean, but they had nothing on Tobias. This series is turning into a favorite no matter how toxic and sad. I feel like so much happened in this book. Also, audio was incredible 🤌🏻

The second book is a lot different from the first but continue from the cliffhanger. It takes you on an emotional ride and had me clinching my jaw the whole time I was reading it.
