We leave the Easton siblings in this book for a second and at first, I was really hesitant about this couple because of it — but goddd, Boden and Laiken won me over so quickly.
There is so much hurt and trauma in this book (and then they all get even more traumatised xoxo) but it's handled so gracefully and you could really see them healing together.
I really didn't see the reveal coming (and not in a positive way) and we've definitely had more logical twists but all the character development we got from it made it semi-okay again.
Still, Cowles is just putting out bangers in this series again and again! Definitely one of my new favourite authors.
