I enjoyed the plot and the spice. It started out as a slow burn but after that whooosh holy cow. I didn’t expect the plot twist with Alex’s family and that rattled my boots. I’m a little upset that Josh never really forgave Alex but you know that’s kinda understandable as to why but it was good. I enjoyed how after he broke her heart they spent time recollecting the trust they use to have instead of making up and getting back together in 2 days it was reasonable and I liked that about it you know. I recommend it considering I wanna read the other three.

this is probably the horniest book ive ever read 😭. i had some issues with it, not just with what some of the characters (alex) did but with how it was executed. seemed like with everything that was packed in, it should have been longer, maybe a little more fleshed out? as for the character’s actions, at some point i surrendered to fiction bc it really is just a book and hopefully there arent any young/impressionable ppl reading this thinking its okay act the way alex does.
the only one of the series i really had an interest in was the third book, but i thought i would read this one first as josh and jules are extremely close with alex and ava. but ofc now im a teeny bit interested in the second book so sigh

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Normally, I'm quite good at working out plots or outcomes, but this book had so many well executed plot twists. I was left shocked several times. Everything changed and I wanted to laugh, be angry, cry, and throw my phone all at the same time. It was a lot but in a good way. I really enjoyed this book, the relationship was cute and the grovelling was even better - I only wish that more of it was shown. My expectations for men are about 20x higher after reading this book, and Ava is such a lovable main character. I genuinely enjoyed learning her story. Highly recommend, but check TWs.
