This book was definitely my least favorite one the author has wrote. To me, the relationship was just very toxic, and I don’t feel like they actually love each other. I wasn’t a big fan of Daniel’s excuses for why he ended the relationship the way he did. He definitely needed to do some more groveling. Alyssa made me mad because it was like she didn’t have a spine when it came to him, despite the fact that he continuously hurt her and made her feel bad about herself. Maybe if I read Daniel’s book, I’ll change my mind, but I really don’t want to read it right now.
