♡ This book? This series? This AUTHOR?! I am obsessed!!! This book had everything I could have asked for. I absolutely loved the secret identity thing, how Blade and Stevie got to know each other, how they got closer and closer. And especially because we really got to see their thoughts, their fears, that's something I really enjoy while reading. To connect with the characters, to relate to them. Just to feel like they're real? I don't know, but when I read this book, I really felt like they weren't just fictional, made-up characters. They were all so believable, and so was the plot! I didn't feel like I was reading this book, and that's one of the best feelings ever! And the family found in this novel? That was SO good!!! I fell in love with *almost* all of the characters, and I am really, really, really excited to read the story of the other members of the system! I'm so hyped now!!! 

♡ Also, towards the end, I really thought I had figured out the plot twist. Somehow, but well... I was SO wrong!!! And even though I don't like to be wrong, the fact that it didn't happen made me enjoy the book even more. Because it just shows how Aleks and Stevie are meant to be together. How they build a strong relationship, how they both care for each other. In the end, this book was not only super spicy and kinky, but also really sweet because it was realistic and I can't get enough of this kind of story!
