I wish I could rate a book above 5 stars but I will just say that since finishing this, I have gone back and re-listened to Chapter 14 twice on the audio (plus a small amount of 15) and then relistened to the whole second half of this book just so I could cry.  Like the hangover is so real.

These Absolute GD Disasters.  I do not believe anyone trying to tell me that there is a better relationship than Andreil. I don't care what you say. You cannot convince me. I love them. I would do anything for them. I would face the Mafia and Renee on their behalf I do not care.

My life.
