I just knew that Sloane and Lucian were going to be my favorite couple in this series and this book did not disappoint! It was so fun being able to see their relationship evolve throughout the book. The flashbacks really added depth to the characters journeys. Sloane and Lucian have red hot chemistry. This was a well thought out childhood friends to enemies to friends with benefits to lovers story. The arc of Lucian was truly *chef’s kiss* He is a mix of broody protective and secretly sweet and caring. The continuation of the plot surrounding the crime boss added an element of suspense that had you turning the page for more.  I will say this book had no business being this long! While I enjoyed the story it could have been edited down from the almost 600 pages. Despite that I did enjoy this book and would recommend it.
