i kinda was expecting more of this book than what it delivered in the end. i loved ty in the previous books and think the author did him a bit dirty in his own book, making him kind of a villain to lake. while i came to understand his intentions and reasons and knew he'd fall in love with lake, i didn't like the way he was treating her in the beginning. i also feel like lake was such a weak fmc, she only argued with him and few some tantrums a few times but came to believing to like being treated as his slut, she never seemed to question anything and it made me so mad. the plot, albeit only coming pretty late in the book, was nice and exciting to read and some things really were crazy. i think some stuff was predictable while other plot points surprised me a lot and i liked that. but i, again, have to argue that

I HATE THE PREGNANCY TROPE LIKE GURL CAN YOU NOT EVEN GO FOR ONE BOOK WITHOUT GETTING THE FMC PREGNANT WITHIN 2 SECONDS AFTER BEING WITH THE MMC.

. thanks for coming to my ted talk. anyway, i liked the book, but i still liked the first one of the series best and am not as big a tyson fan as i was in the first two books.

The first book in this series will always be my favorite, but this one was still much better than the one before it. One thing that I always have to remind myself before reading something from this series tho, is that the family dynamics are all kinds of fucked up. It’s like an erotic soap opera, and while it can be too much at times, I still loved it.
