Ohhhh I really enjoyed this one!! It was gripping and darker than the first book. 

My ship WON and I hope it STAYS that way! Even if the “love triangle” really wasn’t necessary.

In terms or characters: Sloane was almost nonexistent and Lia was mostly annoying, always appearing in a scene just to be rude or intruding. Michael clearly walked so Jameson Hawthorne could run, because… I see where he’s coming from but something bothers me.
I do like Cassie, Briggs, I really loved Sterling and I’m thinking Dean’s character is the one with the most potential.

I did enjoy the Briggs/Sterling baggage and I’m hoping for some second chance romance in the next book.

Plot wise, I guessed most of the twists but was clueless regarding the development that would lead to them. 

Honestly, this series is addicting and so fast to get through!
