I'm not sure what to think right now.

That last paragraph.

THAT LAST LINE.

Let me start of by saying that I have heard nothing but great things about this series. I was so excited to jump into this book, because of that, and almost immediately I was a bit shocked. Not so much in a good way.

The events that happen in the first 10-15% of this book were so crazy and drama filled. It is almost to the point of being unrealistic. Then in the rest of the first half of the book, everything just worked out perfectly for the "new couple." We can't do this for her, so you'll have to do it Jake, or yes, Mikayla, you can stay here forever and we don't care if you are sleeping in the same bed as Jake. That was a bit annoying, and unbelievable too. YET, I did relate to the couples feelings towards each other, and their tension. The tension in this book is CRAZY good.

Now, the jealousy and self doubt that seemed to pop up constantly and out of no where, was a bit much for me. It was a bit over the top, and made me want to smack them around a bit. I also thought the ending seemed rushed, which is one of my biggest pet peeves in books. We are spending all this time in the story to get to the ending, so why rush the best parts? Then throw in the extra bits of drama in the end, that I didn't think were necessary at all to the story and you get some more eye rolling from me.

BUT that ending was definitely a good one. I didn't see that last paragraph coming at all. Made me feel for Logan way more than I had. It kind of made reading the book worth it.

In the end, I was happy they got their Happily Ever After, well at least for now. Lucy and Logan have a soft spot in my heart. Loved their characters. I even enjoyed Jake, even though it was a bit over the top in a lot of areas.

And I will continue on with the series.
