I loved Game on and I read the game on books countless (!) times. So I was expecting to love this series but instead it totally missed me. It therefore also hurts me to write this review but honestly the total series (except Managed) felt like a total decline in terms of writing, plot and character development. I just really felt like the author can do more than that.
Where Game on impressed with somewhat emotional mature and committed men, the male protagonists in VIP somehow felt like boys that have the emotional intelligence of highschoolers. A big miss for me was also the background of Jax. Not because of the secretory but because apparently it has led the group to talk more about their emotions - but they literally don’t talk about their issues and instead mock each other all the time until shit blows up. So yeah, the emotional depth in this series was really lacking for me

Exposed: story of Rye and Brenna
I wasn’t really looking forward to reading this book in the series and the first 3 set the bar quite high but I am so glad I gave it a go because I loved it!
Both of the main characters were endearing. Loved their HEA.
I hope there is a book about Whipp!

I loved this, it was an easy read but also really heartfelt. People growing.
Not too deep but not just bubblegum— I loved the way they described music and a found family dynamic that was so endearing.
Great example of rockstar romance.
I did find it suffered from some Romanclandia maths; she Is described as 5’10” in sky high heels but tall for a girl without them, and that he is nearly a foot taller than her….
His mum is described as “nearly six foot” but again that he is nearly a foot taller.
He is then described at 6’3”.
Romance maths.

um yes
1. the sound of her heels is the rhythm to one of his songs
2. friends with benefits with infuriating miscommunication but also pining
3. she has the most killer collection of shoes, which he then proceeds to add to perfectly in the epilogue
just the best way to finish the series
