This book is about 30 pages of answers and 400 pages of crap. I don’t know how this gets as many 4 and 5 star ratings as it does!?!?!?!? The number of times I wanted to DNF this book… absolute waste of my time.
I can’t understand how an author can write so many words and yet tell the reader nothing? This book is chaotic, repetitive, overly dramatic and all the characters are so angry and hostile all the time. It’s so poorly written that half the time I’ve not got a clue WHY they’re so angry because the whole thing is so evasive and their extreme emotions are rarely explained. The first 70% of this book is 100% a 1 star, it’s boring and the one bit of action which passes for interesting again doesn’t make sense at the time and what follows is more evasiveness, gahhhhh. All the relationships explored in this book are so toxic and the FMC is so pathetic, whiny and dislikable. It gains a 0.5 because at least I got given some answers at the end of this book to help explain what the hell has been going on. It has left me feeling as though the entirety of book one was redundant though and I’m not left satisfied with how it ends but I shall not be reading book three.
Satisfactory ending? Nope.

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.

“I know you…because you know me, and it’s here, in this place that we recognized we’ve known each other all along.” ❤️‍🩹

This FREAKING BOOK. I have emotional whiplash. I experienced ALL THE EMOTIONS. I hated them all and then I grieved for them all and then I freaking LOVED them all. I have loved so deeply and my heart just aches thinking about it. My dark cloud 🖤 😭😭😭

Let me just say that this series (so far) has wrecked me. While I feel so sad for Dom, I freaking love Sean and I just wish we had more Sean content 😭😭 the first time I’ve ever loved the blonde sunshine boy but goddamn do I love him. This would be a 5 star if I didn’t hate Tobias so much, I fell in love with Sean and Dom so quickly and easily, Tobias just felt very forced and I wish we would’ve gotten more from the boys. 
But overall, I really did enjoy this book. The ending was definitely rushed and seemed kind of thrown together,
I was definitely okay with them not being together. I loved that Cecelia finally gave herself permission to move on, and honestly I’m kinda bummed it didn’t stay that way. Probably would’ve gotten more stars if it did.
